Boy You Got The Blues In You

When I was just a young boy
Maybe 2 or 3
A gypsy woman lifted me up
and put me on her knee.

She gazed into her crystal ball
and then she smiled at me (she said)
"Boy you've got the blues in you" and gave her guitar to me.

She said "now listen very carefully
to every word I say.
You've got to pay your dues
to feel the blues you play."

She said "the blues is like a caged up animal.
And your guitar is it's freedom key."
I can still hear that gypsy woman telling me "set it free boy, set it free."


Well I'm an old man now.
The blues paid all my dues for me.
Well I'm an old man now.
The blues paid all my dues for me.
I can still hear that gypsy woman telling me "set it free boy, set it free."
