Lyrics
He was born in Mississippi, played the blues in Chicago town
He was born in Mississippi, played the blues in Chicago town
The bright lights and big city, Lord, where he could be found
Yes, I love to hear his blues, honest I do
I love to hear his blues, honest I do
Got me doing what you want, baby, what you want me to do
Don't need no more than a guitar and a harp
He don't need no more than a guitar and a harp
Left out of Chicago, he was walking to New York
You know, he quit his job to do the best that he can
Lord, he quit his job to do the best that he can
Got tired of working, Lord, for the big boss man
He was born in Mississippi, played the blues in Chicago town
The bright lights and big city, Lord, where he could be found
Yes, I love to hear his blues, honest I do
I love to hear his blues, honest I do
Got me doing what you want, baby, what you want me to do
Don't need no more than a guitar and a harp
He don't need no more than a guitar and a harp
Left out of Chicago, he was walking to New York
You know, he quit his job to do the best that he can
Lord, he quit his job to do the best that he can
Got tired of working, Lord, for the big boss man
