The Blues Video (MV)

I wasn't born in Mississippi
My skin's not quite black
I never picked no cotton
Or filled the eleven foot sack
But honey, if it's possible
To feel the way I do
Oh people, all I wanna do
Is sing the blues
I just want to sing the blues

Well I don't sing like Slim Harpo
Or drink like Jimmy Reed
Don't play like T-Bone Walker
But when I feel the need
I get the spirit swell inside
Like a seed in spring
And oh people all I wanna
Do is sing
I just want to sing the blues

I'm not searching for my roots
Please believe me
I just want to sing the blues
In tune
