Lyrics

We are extremely fortunate
And very, very lucky with this next song
Because the man who wrote it
Is in the same room with us right now
This is called, "Blue on Black"
By Mr. Kenny Wayne Shepherd
Night falls and I'm alone
Skin, yeah, chilled me to the bone
You turned and you ran
Oh yeah
Oh slipped, right from my hand
Hey
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream
Doesn't change a thing
Don't bring you back
Blue on black
Blind, oh, now I see
Truth, lies, and in between
Wrong can't be undone
Oh slipped from the tip of your tongue
Hey
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream
Doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
Blue on black
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream
Doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
Blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Mhmm, blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream
It doesn't change a thing
It doesn't bring you back
Yeah, blue on black
Yeah, blue on black
Mhmm, blue on black
Blue on black
