Verse 1
Warner (G major) Brown, John Henry,
Casey Jones, St. Louis,
that's why I want to play
three minutes ago again,
St. (C major) Louis Blues, that's (G major) like me
and Debbie C. Henry,
that's who I come up with.
We come up together
playing on Beale Street at Peavey's
(C major) and that's been (G major) many moons ago.
And I'm about the oldest one now,
I'm about the oldest one
and I was ever with us
when (C sharp major) we had our little (C major) joke band
and everything,
(G major) all the rest of them done ceased it
and left me here (C sharp major) alone.
I'm like (G major) a lost sheep.
All my friends,
my musicians are gone,
left forever here,
but I thank the Lord as (E flat major) well as it is. (G major)
What do you want to do?
Glory, (F major) glory, hallelujah,
(D major) and I lay my (G major) burden down.
All right, you want to kick it off?
You kick it off and do the
first couple of verses,
an (F major) d you do the first couple,
and I'll come in.
(G major) When I do that or touch (D major) you, (G major) you quit.
I'll sing a couple of verses,
and when I get through singing
and everything,
I'll just touch you with my hand,
and then you sing your voices.
Anytime I touch you,
it's your time to sing
the voice.
You understand that? Okay. Okay.
Ready? Yeah. (D major)
(G major)
