DIRTY DELTA BLUES 2

DOWN IN THE DELTA WHERE THE DIRT ROAD WINDS

THERE S A PLACE WHERE THE BLUES TAKE OVER YOUR MIND

THE COTTON FIELDS WHISPER TALES OF HEARTACHE AND PAIN

AND THE GHOSTS OF THE PAST ECHO THEIR REFRAIN

OH I GOT THE DIRTY DELTA BLUES

RUNNING THROUGH MY SOUL

MUDDY WATERS HOWLIN WOLF

ROBERT JOHNSON ELMORE JAMES

IM A PRISONER OF THE BLUES TILL THE BITTER END

ON A WOODEN PORCH BENEATH A SOUTHERN MOON

THE DEVIL IN MY FINGERS STRUMS MY GUITAR

AS THEY DANCE ON THE STRINGS

IM SEARCHING FOR SALVATION IN THE BLUES THAT I SING

OH I GOT THE DIRTY DELTA BLUES

RUNNING THROUGH MY SOUL

MUDDY WATERS HOWLIN WOLF

ROBERT JOHNSON ELMORE JAMES

IM A PRISONER OF THE BLUES TILL THE BITTER END

IN THE JUKE JOINTS AND HONKY-TONKS WHERE THE WHISKEY FLOWS

THE SWEAT AND TEARS MINGLE AS THE MUSIC GROWS

EVERY NOTE I PLAY TELLS A STORY

IN THE HEART OF THE DELTA WHERE THE BLUES UNFOLD

ALL MY LIFE I VE WALKED THESE DUSTY ROADS

WITH NOTHIN TO MY NAME

THE BLUES KEEP ME COMPANY THEY RE MY CLAIM TO FAME

THE SOUND OF THE SLIDE GUITAR CUT THROUGH THE NIGHT

AS I SING MY SORROW UNDER THE PALE MOONLIGHT

OH I GOT THE DIRTY DELTA BLUES

RUNNING THROUGH MY SOUL

MUDDY WATERS HOWLIN WOLF

ROBERT JOHNSON ELMORE JAMES

IM A PRISONER OF THE BLUES TILL THE BITTER END

SO IF YOU EVER FIND YOURSELF DOWN IN THE DELTA

LISTEN TO THE BLUES LET THEM TAKE YOU TO THAT SACRED PLACE

WHERE THE DIRT AND THE SORROW INTERTWINE AND FUSE

IN THE HEART OF THE DELTA YOU'RE FIND

THE DIRTY DELTA BLUES

ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES

HERE I AM ANOTHER SLEEPLESS NIGHT

LAYING IN MY BED

WITH A HEAVY HEART

THE MOONS GLOW CASTS SHADOWS ON MY BED

ITS JUST ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES

HEARTACHE AND LONELINESS THE SAME OLD BLUES

THE DARKNESS SURROUNDS ME LIKE A HEAVY VEIL

IN THIS MELANCHOLY MOMENT I FEEL DESTINED TO FAIL

MEMORIES HAUNT ME LIKE GHOSTS IN THE DARK

ECHOES OF LOST LOVE LEAVING ITS LINGERING MARK

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING AS THE WORLD SLEEPS TIGHT

ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES WITH NO END IN SIGHT

ITS JUST ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES

HEARTACHE AND LONELINESS THE SAME OLD BLUES

THE DARKNESS SURROUNDS ME LIKE A HEAVY VEIL

IN THIS MELANCHOLY MOMENT I FEEL DESTINED TO FAIL

BUT IN THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR ILL FIND MY WAY

THROUGH THE TEARS AND PAIN ILL LEARN TO LAUGH

FOR THE BLUES MAY WEIGH ME DO ILL SMILE AGAIN

AFTER ALL ITS JUST

ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES

THE CITY LIGHT FLICKER LIKE STARS IN DISGUISE

WHISPERING SECRETS BENEATH MIDNIGHT SKIES

LOVERS KISS WHILE

ILL SING MY SORROWS TO THE MOON

ITS JUST ANOTHER NIGHT OF THE BLUES

HEARTACHE AND LONELINESS THE SAME OLD BLUES

THE DARKNESS SURROUNDS ME LIKE A HEAVY VEIL

IN THIS MELANCHOLY MOMENT I FEEL DESTINED TO FAIL

IVE GOT BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO WHILE THE DEVILS DANCING WITH MY SOUL

IN THE DARKNESS OF THE NIGHT IM LOST WITHIN MY MIND

WITH BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO I LEAVE MY CARES BEHIND

THE DEVILS DANCING WITH MY SOUL A TWISTED EMBRACE SO BOLD

IN THIS FORBIDDEN DANCE MY FATE UNFOLDS

IVE GOT BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO

WHILE THE DEVILS DANCING WITH MY SOUL

THE MUSIC FUELS THE FIRE TAKES ME TO PLACES UNKNOWN

LOST IN THE RHYTHM MY SPIRT BECOMES ITS OWN

GUITAR RIFFS LIKE LIGHTNING BOLTS DRUMS POUNDING IN MY CHEST

OZZYS VOICE ECHOES A HAUNTING RAW UNREST

THE DEVILS TEMPTATIONS HE TRIES TO CALL ME OUT

IN THIS MACABRE WALTZ I SET MY DEMONS FREE

IVE GOT BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO

WHILE THE DEVILS DANCING WITH MY SOUL

THE MUSIC FUELS THE FIRE TAKES ME TO PLACES UNKNOWN

LOST IN THE RHYTHM MY SPIRT BECOMES ITS OWN

IN THIS DARKENED ROOM SHADOWS SWAY AND TWIST

IM CAUGHT IN A TRANCE CANT RESIST THIS UNHOLY TRYST

THE MUSIC IS MY REFUGE A SANCTUARY I BEHOLD

AS I SURRENDER TO THE DEPTHS MY STORY STARTS TO UNFOLD

GUITAR SOLOS PIECRE THE AIR LIKE A BLADE UPON MY SKIN

THE DEVILS GRIP TIGHTENS AS THE DANCE BEGINS TO SPIN

I EMBRACE THE DARKNESS FIND STRENGTH FROM THE UNKNOWN

WITH BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO I CLAIM MY OWN THRONE

I GOT BLACK SABBATH ON THE STEREO

WHILE THE DEVILS DANCING WITH MY SOUL

THE MUSIC FUELS THE FIRE TAKE ME TO PLACES UNKNOWN

LOST IN THE RHYTHM MY SPIRT BECOMES ITS OWN

AS THE SONGS FADE THE DEVIL MAKES HIS RETREAT

LEAVING ME WITH A TASTE OF REBELLION ETCHED UPON MY SOUL

HOW MANY BLUES DOES A MAN HAVE TO HAVE TO WRITE THE BLUES

HOW MANY BLUES DOES A MAN HAVE TO HAVE

TO WRITE A SONG THAT LL MAKE YOUR HEART FEEL SAD

IS IT THE WEIGHT OF A THOUSAND BROKEN DREAMS

OR THE PAIN THAT LINGERS IN HIS SOUL

OH TELL ME NOW WONT YOU PLEASE

HOW MANY BLUES DOES A MAN HAVE TO HAVE TO WRITE THE BLUES

IS IT THE LONELINESS THAT KEEPS HIM UP ALL NIGHT

OR THE MEMORIES THAT HAUNT HIM NEVER OUT OF SIGHT

IS IT THE LOVE THAT SLIPPED AWAY LIKE SAND THROUGH HIS FINGERS

OR THE MISTAKES HE MADE THAT STILL LINGER

OH TELL ME NOW WONT YOU PLEASE

HOW MANY BLUES DOES A MAN HAVE TO HAVE TO WRITE THE BLUES

IN EVERY TEAR THAT FALLS IN EVERY SIGH HE BREATHES

IN EVERY SHATTERED HOPE AND EVERY HEART THAT GRIEVES

THERE LIES A STORY THAT NEEDS TO BE TOLD

A MELODY THAT CAPTURES THE PAIN RAW AND BOLD

DOES HE NEED A LIFETIME OF HEARTACHE

OR A MOMENT OF DESPAIR THAT CUTS LIKE A KNIFE

IS IT THE BATTLES HE FOUGHT OR THE WARS HE LOST

OR THE LESSONS HE LEARNED NO MATTER THE COST

OH TELL ME NOW WONT YOU PLEASE

HOW MANY BLUES DOES A MAN HAVE TO HAVE TO WRITE THE BLUES

SO LET ME SING THE BLUES LET MY PAIN FLOW THROUGH

IN THOSE MOMENTS I SHARE A PIECE OF THE TRUTH

IN THE DEPTHS OF MY SORROW THE ECHOES OF MY CRIES

THE BLUES COME ALIVE REACHING FOR THE SKY
