Blues Is King - Marshall Crenshaw

Blues is king

A beautiful thing

You just dont know whenever youre done by the one you love

And the jokes on you

If you dont know its true

If you lose your dreams

Youll know what Im thinking of Yeah, blues is king

So let it ring,

Surrender do, to the sound so real and true

And relax your mind, go on, youll be fine

Surrender do, cause youll never displace it So face it, blues is king

As the sun descends, rain begins

Everything in view

Is a dull shade of blue

And the traffic sounds, the lights uptown

Make a sad and uninviting scene to walk into

But the blue of the night

Everything in daylight

Dont even begin, to be as blue as the mood Im in You go out alone, on their way home

Im wandering on, remembering only

That Im lonely

And blues is king

Blues is king,

A beautiful thing

You just dont know whenever youre (torn) by the one you love

And the jokes on you

If you dont know its true

If you lose your dreams

Youll know what Im thinking of Yeah, blues is king,

So let it ring

Surrender do, to the sound so real and true

Just relax your mind,

Go on, youll be fine

Surrender do, cause youll never displace it So face it, blues is king
