Story behind the song
THOUGHTS ON MEMPHIS DOWN ON BEALE STREET
Lyrics
WE GOT THE BLUES
© 2011 Mackie Humphries
CH
Down on Beale Street toes are tappin’
Old neon signs they’re still flashin’
“Music and food are done up right
WE GOT THE BLUES rockin’ tonight.”
V1
Music gets loud
As guitars groan
Those moanin’ sounds
Play all night long.
V2
Buxom girls smile
Workin’ the crowd
They keep purrin’
While Cats meow.
CH
Down on Beale Street toes are tappin’
Old neon signs they’re still flashin’
“Music and food are done up right
WE GOT THE BLUES rockin’ tonight.”
BR
Cold … long necks good Bar-be-que
Hearts sing along with old and new
Right to the bone mean harpin’ blues.
CH
Down on Beale Street toes are tappin’
Old neon signs they’re still flashin’
“Music and food are done up right
WE GOT THE BLUES rockin’ tonight.”
OUTRO
The night moves on - while guitars groan
Got classic blues - playing ‘til dawn
“Music and food are done up right
WE GOT THE BLUES rockin’ tonight.”
“Music and food ... done up right
WE GOT THE BLUES rockin’ tonight.”...............……(2X)
