He was born in Mississippi
in 1924
He was born in Mississippi
in 1924
He left his home with no
money
He had to pay his dues
But he knew his time was
coming when he'd be
king of the blues
He lost his heart to a woman
Lucy was her name
He lost his heart to a woman
Lucy was her name
When he hears her sing
so sweetly
He knows he just can't lose
When he holds her in his
arms he knows he's the
king of the blues
He's a hunter with a
cross-cut saw
Born under a bad sign
Caught his baby ****ing
around down by the
laundrymat
He almost lost his mind
He was born in Mississippi
in 1924
He was born in lndianola
Mississippi in 1924
He doesn't need no jester
to keep himself amused
He's got Lucy by his side
he's making headline news
Doesn't need no palace
like BB down in Dallas
You can call him what
you like
I call him King of the Blues
Mr. Albert King of the
blues you ready
