Song language: English
Blues Before My Time |
| I don’t claim to be old |
| And I have no desire |
| To get there too soon |
| But this story must be told |
| The blues before my time |
| They tear me down and then |
| They fill my heart and make me whole |
| The blues before my time |
| Most say it’s just a sadness |
| But they don’t really know |
| How the blues is but a mirror |
| Of the way we live and how we love |
| If it’s crying that I’m needing |
| I can do it with the blues |
| Then when I through I’ll cry with joy |
| And put on my dancing shoes |
| I’ve never been downtrodden |
| For fault of being black |
| But those who’ve gone and left this legacy |
| It’s them I’d like to thank |
| I’d like to thank |
| I’d like to thank |
