The Blues is Dead?

People been talkin' and it makes me scratch my head

I said people been talkin' and it makes me scratch my head

They been sayin' over and over that the blues is dead?

Well, the blues ain't goin' nowhere, gon' be here for a great long time

Blues ain't goin' nowhere, be here for a great long time

Long as folks got situations and problems on they mind

I say, so stop with that foolish talk, it ain't nothing but some mess

I said, stop with that foolish talk, it ain't nothing but some mess

You know the blues ain't dead, he just been takin' his rest

Wake up, Mr. Blues
