I want to preach & teach and sing the blues mama
I want to preach & teach and sing the blues now
I hope that everybody's going to be willing
To stop their hearts & listen to me now
You see the time come down around about midnight
Hear the blues in town
Come down inside the house & feel the blues brother
We'll take the feeling to the morning goin' right through
Like shining a laser beam at me brother
A crazy laser beam that shines right through
A preacher teacher needs to be around to groove at midnight
Sing the blues right through
So don't forget to pay your dues to God
because the blues is news
You've really got to live it up - the world is just a giving cup Don't stop
So man hear what I've have to say.
come on & play the blues today
