King Of The Blues - Gary Moore

He was born in Mississippi 1924

He was born in Mississippi 1924

Left his home with no money

He had to pay his dues

But he knew the time was comin'

When he'd be King of the Blues

King of the Blues

Lost his heart to a woman

Lucy was her name

Lost his heart to a woman

Lucy was her name

Yes it was

When he hears her sing so sweetly

He knows he just can't lose

When he holds her in his arms he knows that

He's the King of the Blues

He's a hunter with a crosscut saw

Born under a bad sign

Caught his baby messin' down the laundromat

He almost lost his mind

Yeah

He was born in Mississippi in 1924

That's right

He was born in Indianola Mississippi 1924

Yes he was

Doesn't need no jester

To keep him amused

He's got Lucy by his side

He's makin' headline news

Doesn't need no palace

Like Freddie down in Dallas

Look you can call him what you like

But I call him King of the Blues

That's right

Mister Albert King of the Blues

Ohh

King of the Blues

Let me hear ya
