[ Featuring Chaz Jankel ]
I am the blues maker
Drifting from town to town
Sometimes I feel like a king
Sometimes I feel like a clown
I am the blues maker
Blues are my solace and prayer
Some days I sing them with joy
Some days I sing in despair
I sold my soul to the devil
And then I bought it back
Fell on my knees in the chapel
Then moved on down the track
I am the blues maker
Shake on down in a trance
Jiving holy roller
I'm here to make your soul dance
I am the blues maker
Call and respond with the truth
Played for the angel of mercy
Dressed in a suit of houndstooth
I sold my soul to the devil
And then I bought it back
Fell on my knees in the chapel
Ran off like a wild cat
I am the blues maker
Travelling medicine show
Fish-eye snakeskin and bones
They make you dance heel & toe
I am the blues maker
The root doctor on call
I'll make your fever run high
And then your temperature fall
I sold my soul to the devil
And then I bought it back
Fell on my knees in the chapel
Then moved on down the track
I am the blues maker
Running from door to door
I have crossed over the river
Just to reach the other shore
