They Say I'm Different |
| They say I’m different 'cause I’m a piece of sugar cane |
| Sweet to the core, that’s why I got rhythm |
| My great grandma didn’t like the foxtrot |
| Nah, instead she’d spit her snuff and boogie to Elmore James |
| They say I’m different 'cause I eat chitlins |
| I can’t help it I was born and raised on’em, that’s right |
| Every mornin' I’d have to slop the hogs |
| And they’d be gettin' off humpin' to John Lee Hooker |
| They say I’m different 'cause I’m a piece of sugar cane |
| And when I kick my legs, I got rhythm |
| My great grandpa was a blues lover |
| He’d be rockin' his moonshine to B.B. King and Jimmy Reed |
| Rock on now |
| And that’s why they say I’m different |
| And that’s why they say I’m strange |
| I’m talkin bout Big Momma Thornton |
| Lightning Hopkins |
| Howling Wolf |
| Albert King |
| Chuck Berry |
| Chuck Berry |
| Chuck Berry |
| When I was sweet sixteen |
| And that’s why they say I’m different |
| And that’s why you think I’m strange |
| I’m talkin' bout T-Bone Walker |
| (I get my) Muddy Waters |
| Leadbelly |
| Sonny Terry |
| Brownie Mcghee |
| Son House and Freddie King |
| Bessie Smith |
| Bessie Smith |
| Oh, Hey |
| Bo Diddley, have you heard? |
| That’s why they say I’m different |
| That’s why they say I’m strange |
| That’s why they say I’m funky |
| Little Richard |
| Wow, you sure showed 'em you sure could sing |
| Alright, alright |
| Robert Johnson |
| Robert Johnson |
| Robert Johnson |
| He played the blues for me |
| That’s why |
| And that’s why |
| And that’s why they say I’m different |
| That’s why |
| And that’s why |
| And that’s why they say I’m strange |
| That’s why |
| And that’s why |
| And that’s why they say I’m funky |
