Текст песни I'm The One - Bobby Rush

My name is Bobby Rush
I won't everybody to know
I was born to sing the blues
I sing the blues everywhere I go

I'm not like BB King
I'm not like guitar swim
Not like Muddy Waters
Holler, Wolf and all of them

I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one to put the funk in the blues
Oh yeah

I was born in the country
In a one room country shack
Left home when I was 15
With a guitar on my back

I went to Chicago y'all
In 1952
BB King and Muddy Waters showed
Me how to play the blues?

I'm the one
Tell y'all, I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one to put the funk in the blues
Oh yeah

I've been playing the Blues y'all
For a long, long, long, time
And the blues the only thing y'all
The only thing on my mind

I got the blues in my feet
I got the blues in my head
I got the blues when I wake up in the morning
I got the blues when I go to bed

I'm the one
Tell y'all, I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
To put the funk in the blues
Oh yeah

My mama told me
When I was about the age of five
Says, you'll grow up to be a blues man son
You'd be the funkiest blues man alive
I can love to heal the sick
I can love to raise the dead
I can play the blues so funky
Make the hair stand up on your head

I'm the one
Tell y'all
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
That put the funk in the blues

When I was just a little boy
About 16 inches high
I used to crawl up on the table ledge
And make the biscuit fly

I would go up on the meat skin
I would come down on the bone
Hit the biscuits, 75 licks y'all
And make the corn bread moan

I'm the one
Tell y'all I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
To put the funk in the blues
Tell y'all I'm the one

Funk
In the blues
Funk
In the blues
Oh yeah

You can't lose with the stuff I use
I got the funk, funk in the blues
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm the one
To put the funk in the blues

You can't lose with the stuff I use
I got the funk in the blues
I'm the one
I'm the one
