Bound By The Blues - Sonny Landreth

You and I have felt before

The tide of trouble upon the door

Though we be from different shores

We’re Bound by the Blues

Lightnin' falls from the sky

Muddy Waters on the rise

In songs that get us through the times

Bound by the Blues

Sisters and brothers

Of every color

Bound to one another

Bound by the Blues

Flat blade across the strings

Cone cries the Reso rings

The metal body lady sings

Bound by the Blues

She’s an easy rider on the back

Freight train down the track

Tales worth tellin' that

Are Bound by the Blues

Sisters and brothers

Of every color

Bound to one another

Bound by the Blues

Voodoo chile and a white strat

Baton Rouge’s a bummer that

Noel said no lookin' back

Bound by the Blues

On the res where she began

Sainte-Marie took a stand

With songs she wrote for every man

Bound by the Blues

From a scale off the chart

Every note for a broken heart

Each and every piece apart

Bound by the Blues

Sisters and brothers

Of every color

Bound to one another

Sisters and brothers

Of every color

Bound to one another

Bound by the Blues
