Born With The Blues (Remastered) (Live) - Sonny Terry And Brownie Mcghee

From my childhood to where I am now

I ain't gonna worry I'll get by somehow

My Momma had 'em my daddy had 'em too

I was born with the blues

I'll tell you somethin'

Friend it ain't no joke

I wouldn't take my past life

For my weight in gold

My momma had 'em daddy had 'em too

I was born with the blues

I've used my guitar for my pillow

Hollow log has even been my bed

Blues my only companion

I had to sing the blues for my meat and bread

I want you to know I begin to roam

Poor old Brownie come from a broken home

My Momma had 'em daddy had 'em too

I was born with the blues

If you've ever been down

You know how I feel

Feel like an engine

Ain't got no drivin' wheel

But I'm not ashamed

Ain't that news

I been livin' with the blues

Don't believe I'm sinkin'

Look what a hole I'm in

Don't believe I love you

Look what a fool I've been

But I'm not ashamed

Ain't that news

I been livin' with the blues

You know what

Rocks help in my pillow

Cold ground had to be their beds

Blue sky are use for the blanket

And the moonlight was their spread

Oh yes

If you think I'm happy

You don't know my mind

Smile on my face

My heart's bleeding all the time

But I'm not ashamed

Ain't that news

I been livin' with the blues

Thats why I say rocks was help my pillow

Cold ground had to be their beds

Blue sky people are use for their blanket

Moonlight in my only spread

Oh yes

I worked all summer

Slaved all the fall

Had to take your Christams

In your overalls

But I'm not ashamed

Ain't that news

I been livin' with the blues

My Momma had 'em my daddy had 'em too

I was born with the blues

I'm not ashamed

Oh no friends

Ain't that a lot of news

Me and old Sonny's got the blues
