The Blues Is Here to Stay
Some people sit and giggle
When they hear the guitar ring
If the band is playing the blues
They try to hide their face in shame
But I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
There's a new sound born in music ever day
If you like to mambo
Just go ahead and have your way
I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
Now you might like pop music
Or one of those shiny tunes
You play it every morning and evening
Every day at noon
I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
Oh, play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
Let's play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
