Ain't Gon' Let the Blues Die - Kenny Neal

Hey something told me, keep the blues alive

I heard something told me, don’t let the blues die

Had Robert Johnson standing at the Crossroad (Crossroad)

We had the devil trying to buy his soul

A big price to pay to play the blues today

I said I ain’t gon' let the blues die

We had Muddy Waters with the mojo hand

We had Jimmy Reed, the Big Boss Man

We had Howard King playing the blues for you

We had Koko Taylor pitching her Wang Dang Doodles

Said I ain’t gon' let the blues die

We had Otis Redding Sittin' at The Dock of The Bay (Yeah)

We had Ray Charles, tell me What’d I Say (Hit the Road Jack)

We had Freddie King playing the Hide Away

We had Howlin' Wolf (Howlin' Wolf) howling his blues away

Said I ain’t gon' let the blues die

You had Big Mama Thornton with the Balls and Chain

We had John Lee Hooker, (Boogie) the Boogie Man

We had Junior Wells Messin' With The Kid

All you legends look at what you did

I said I ain’t gon' let the blues die

Oh I’m gon' keep the blues alive

I said I ain’t gon' let the blues die

Oh I ain’t gon' let the blues die

Hey, hey, hey

I’m gon' keep the blues alive

Said I ain’t gon' let the blues die
