I was born in a cool place
That was longtime ago (repeat)
I had to leave one day
I can t recall how long i drove
I was born in a cool place
I had to leave when i was young (repeat)
I was thrown on the road
Sometimes the road isn t much fun
I got the blues where i was born
Though i wasn t born in mississipi (repeat)
You get the blues when it s to get
The blues don t let you choose the city
I got the blues
No matter where i got the blues
I got the blues
No matter where i got the blues
I got the blues so deep
What could i do i couldn t chose
