Story behind the song

It's all about playing the blues for today's blues audience played on a classical nylon string guitar.

Lyrics

Da Blues be dead but for Whitey
But for Whitey
Blues be dead
But for Whitey
Why's only White Boys playin' da Blues?
Why's only White Boys playin' da Blues?

Da Blues belongs in a juke joint
In a juke joint
Blues belong
In a juke joint 
Not in some dirtbag biker bar
Not in some dirtbag biker bar

Da Blues best played by da Negro
By da Negro
Blues best played
By da Negro
Not by some tired ass White Boys
Not by some tired ass White Boys

Da Blues be dead but for Whitey
But for Whitey
Blues be dead
But for Whitey
Why's only White Boys playin' da Blues?
Why's only White Boys playin' da Blues?
