Lyrics Young And Old Blues - Bob Margolin

Young And Old Blues

I love to play blues on my guitar so i went to see BB King
It was hard to believe a man so old could still play and sing
I was 20 years old and he let me sit in and tore it up some more
That ancient man played all night long BB King was 44
I shake my head and smile about how we look at young and old
It depends on which side you look from and the truth sure can be cold
My band payed and the colleagues danced man those kids were rocking
The danced fell down and couldn’t stand up then we played July for them to talk
Oh ma breaker heart girl came over and said her dad likes to listen to me
To her it’s just another old guy I was only 33
I shake my head and smile about how we look at young and old
It depends on which side you look from and the truth sure can be cold
30 years later at a festival in Switzerland
Someone I met a long time ago came by and said Bob is that you man
I remember you back in the day you haven’t changed (ha haa)
I didn’t know you were still alive and your own grandpa
I shake my head and smile about how we look at young and old
It depends on which side you look from and the truth sure can be cold
I take a stage and turn off ma phone with ma guitar and i’m redeemed
The road is tough well so am I, I do more than I ever dreamed
I rode 700 miles to give you ma best but it’s still a mystery
Do ma blues move you tonight or am I just history
I shake my head and smile about how we look at young and old
