Some people sit and giggle
When they hear the guitar ring
If the band is playing the blues
They try to hide their face in shame
But I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say

There's a new sound born in music ever day
If you like to mambo
Just go ahead and have your way
I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say

Now you might like pop music
Or one of those shiny tunes
You play it every morning and evening
Every day at noon
I don't care what some people say
Play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say

Oh, play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
Let's play the blues with the feeling
I know the blues is here to say
