📜 Lyrics
The one and only Little Stevie Wonder
Yeah
I was sittin' in my classroom the other day
Playin' my harmonica in a mellow way
Some teachers seemed to have gathered around
Tryin' to figure out what I was puttin' down
I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah
Ain't that pretty now
They were lookin' at me sittin' there all alone
Mumblin' to each other in a real low tone
I couldn't figure out what they were sayin', no
They couldn't understand what I was playin'
Well, I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah, hey
Ain't that pretty now
Well, I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, ooh yeah
I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah
Yeah
I was sittin' in my classroom the other day
Playin' my harmonica in a mellow way
Some teachers seemed to have gathered around
Tryin' to figure out what I was puttin' down
I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah
Ain't that pretty now
They were lookin' at me sittin' there all alone
Mumblin' to each other in a real low tone
I couldn't figure out what they were sayin', no
They couldn't understand what I was playin'
Well, I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah, hey
Ain't that pretty now
Well, I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, ooh yeah
I call it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, yeah
