[00:11.36] I was born to sing the blues

[00:34.90] I'm the one to put the funk in the blues
[00:40.11] Oh yeah
[00:43.02] I was born in the country
[00:45.42] In a one room country shack
[00:48.13] Left home when I was 15
[00:50.71] With a guitar on my back
[00:53.59] I went to Chicago y'all
[00:56.27] In 1952
[00:59.16] BB King and Muddy Waters showed
[01:01.74] Me how to play the blues?

[01:20.21] I've been playing the Blues y'all
[01:22.86] For a long, long, long, time
[01:26.09] And the blues the only thing y'all
[01:28.63] The only thing on my mind
[01:30.77] I got the blues in my feet

[01:58.11] My mama told me
[02:00.28] When I was about the age of five
[02:02.95] Says, you'll grow up to be a blues man son
[02:05.13] You'd be the funkiest blues man alive
[02:08.50] I can love to heal the sick
[02:11.25] I can love to raise the dead
[02:13.61] I can play the blues so funky
[02:16.37] Make the hair stand up on your head
[02:18.71] I'm the one

[02:26.60] I'm the one
[02:28.23] That put the funk in the blues
[02:35.21] When I was just a little boy
[02:37.31] About 16 inches high
[02:40.08] I used to crawl up on the table ledge
[02:42.90] And make the biscuit fly
[02:45.35] I would go up on the meat skin
[02:48.25] I would come down on the bone
[02:50.86] Hit the biscuits, 75 licks y'all
[02:53.26] And make the corn bread moan
[02:55.98] I'm the one
[02:58.12] Tell y'all I'm the one
[03:01.62] I'm the one
[03:02.14] I'm the one
[03:04.08] I'm the one
[03:05.94] To put the funk in the blues
