Where The Blues Are Fully Infused

Jammin’ along to riffs by, Sister Tharpe and Robert Johnson,            
You could only tell the difference, if a spotlight shone upon each one.      
For one was going to heaven, the other, all the way to hell.                  
But, while they picked at their guitars the mobs would still yell.                 
They’d do a solo on a lead guitar, unheard of in those days;                  
Then be totally racistised once stepping out on the pavement.                  
No mention in the papers, because of the editor’s clan, da-far-right KKKs.        
But, outrage and riots ensued, callin’ da end to all dat black enslavement.                 
                 
Just sit back, take it easy and let those blues fill your shoes.                  
Let her just make y’all a little bit confused.                 
Ask her before or after, were you just abused?                 
Either way, if your spirit was amused, she’ll be excused.                 
                 
Been scooting across mid town and even to easy beat street.                  
Tripping lights out and seen both colored folks, along the way.              
Gettin’ some to enter my mobile studio, I call ‘Da Jam in da Van’!        
Because, it’s not for just any ole cotton pickin’ southern bred fan.          
So, come inside, switch it on, then blow me off my feet.          
I’ll sign you on the spot, if you purr like a cool cat or a certain sort of stray.              
                 
Just sit back, take it easy and let those blues fill your shoes.              
Let her just make y’all a little bit confused.                
Ask her before or after, were you just abused?                  
Either way, if your spirit was amused, she’ll be excused.              
                 
The here and now, is where the blues are fully infused.                 
Not from era’s gone past or from some distant future.                  
You can’t find it in a library, you can’t teach her;                 
You won’t see it in a theory, you won’t solve her;                  
You shan’t catch it in a harness, you shan’t trap her.                  
Once gotten, never forgotten, you’ll never ever, lose her.                  
                 
Just sit back, take it easy and let those blues fill your shoes.                  
Let her just make y’all a little bit confused.                  
Ask her before or after, were you just abused?                 
Either way, if your spirit was amused, she’ll be excused.
