Lyrics
Blue As Could Be
(copyright 2020 socan b cameron)
V1:
Tore up Dallas
Till his hands were callus
Ripped up Austin
From LA to Boston
Oh but daddy wasn’t diggin'
Momma's pride n’ joy pickin'
Big brother Jimmie
Was a Thunderbird
Took him under his wing
Spread the word
Chorus:
He was Born
Blue as boy could be
Baptized by fire, holy water and a six string
Didn't take long for the news to hit the street
The blues had another baby
A love struck baby from Texas
Blue as could be
V2:
Fallowed In Step
As far as it gets
The sky was crying
Tightrope unwinding
Cold shot coming
Texas flood running
Couldn't stand the weather
Life by the drop
Wasn’t life at all
Knew he had to stop
Chorus:
He was Born
Blue as boy could be
Baptized by fire, holy water and a six string
Didn't take long for the news to hit the street
The blues had another baby
A love struck baby from Texas
Blue as could be
V3:
Life was good
Clean and dry
Didn’t need to get high
To reach those heights
Down in Alpine Valley
Played his final finale
Finished Voodoo Chile
Double Trouble style
Took a bow and waved
Said his last goodbye
Chorus:
He was born
Blue as a boy could be
Baptized by fire, holy water and a six string
Didn’t take long for the news to hit the street
The blues lost another baby
A love struck baby from Texas
Blue as could be
Yes the blues lost another baby
His chopper went down
Hit a mountain to foggy to see
So hard to believe
Brought the world to it's knees
Blue as could be
