I am, I am the blues
I am, oh I am the blues
I know the world knows I've been mistreated
And the whole world know I've been misused
I am the moan of suffering women
I am the groan of dying men
I am the last one to start
But I am the first one to begin
Oh I am, oh I am the blues
Ooh world knows I've been mistreated
The whole world knows I've been misused

I am the blood of peoples wounds, who play and die
I am the the last one to hide
I am the first one to find
Oh I am, oh I am the blues
The world knows I've been mistreated
The whole world knows I've been used
Well boys somebody help me

I am the new generation
A prodigy of starvation
I am the arm beyond the door friend
For a new new night and nation
Oh I am, oh I am the blues
Yeah the world knows I been mistreated
The whole world knows I've been misused
I am the blues
Oh friends I am the blues
I am friends I am the blues
Yeah the world know I been mistreated
The whole round world know I've been misused
