All right people
The rest of the hard working all star blues brothers
Are gonna be out here in a minute
Including my little brother jake but right now
I'd like to talk a little bit about thi
E you're hearing this is ofcourse
the green onions tune
It was a very big hit in the early sixties in this country
And ofcourse it was composed
and recorded in memphis
Tennessee right here
E united states of america you know
People i believe that this tune can
Be acquinted with the great classical music
around the world
Now you go to germany
You've got your bach
Your beethoven your brahms
Here in america you've got your fred mcdowell
Your irving berlin your glenn miller
and your booker t & the mg's
Ple another example of the great
contributions in music
And culture that this country
has made around the world
And as you look around the world today
You see this country spurned
You see backs turned on this country
Well people i'm gonna tell you something
This continent north america is the stronghold
This is where we're gonna make
our stand in this decade
Yeah
E i've got something to say to the state department
I say take that archaic monroe doctrine
And that marshall plan that says
We're supposed to police force the world
And throw 'em out let's
Home for the next ten years people
Right here in north america and enjoy the music
And culture that is ours yeah
I got one more thing to say
I'm just talking about the music
People and what it does to me
And that is as you look around the world
You go to the soviet union or great britain or france
You name it any country ev
Dy is doing flips and twists just to
Get into a genuine pair of american blue jeans
And to hear this music
and we got it all here in america
The land of the chrysler 440 cubic inch engine
