Ev'rybody from one day to another has the blues
You take the little baby that's layin' in the cradle

He got the blues
Can ya dig it?
YEAH! [audience replies]
Ha, ha, ha
You take this girl that's got this main squeeze
That's her boyfriend, that is, you know

An' go around the corner to the soda fountain
This is where she wanna go an'show it off
Where all the girls and guys be
You know what I mean?
An' she get ready to go out this particular night
An' her mother say, "Daughter you was just out last night
You can't go out tonight, that's too many nights in a row"
She go in the room an'fasten the door
An' won't answer the phone, won't eat
Won't talk to nobody
She got the blues
That's what's wrong wit' her
Some people call them the reds, the pinks
When ya get through
It's the old-fashioned country blues
That's right

In ten long weeks, today
You know I got the blues

The lyrics BLUES POWER of ALBERT KING is also present in the album Blues power (1968)
Albert King (25 aprile 1923 – 21 dicembre 1992) è stato un chitarrista e cantante di blues statunitense. Nato a Indianola, Mississippi, King ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '50 suonando in locali del Delta del Mississippi. È noto per il suo stile unico di chitarra caratterizzato da una tecnica aggressiva e dal suono potente, spesso definito "blues elettrico". Il suo uso innovativo della distorsione e dell'overdrive ha influenzato generazioni di chitarristi blues e rock. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Born Under a Bad Sign", "Crossroads" e "The Sky Is Crying". King ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui un Grammy Award nel 1970 per il suo album "I'm in Love Again". La sua musica è stata fondamentale nell'evoluzione del blues moderno e continua ad essere apprezzata da appassionati di tutto il mondo.

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
