I'm The One

But 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.

Guitar swim not like Muddy Waters
Holler,
wolf.
All of them.

I'm the one.

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

I'm the one to put the funk in the blues.

Yeah, I've been playing the Blues y'all for a long,
long, time, and the blues the only thing on my mind,
I got the blues in my feet.
I got the blues in my head.
I got the blue when I wake up in the morning,
I got the blues when I go to bed,

I'm the one tell you I'm the one, I'm the one,
I'm the one and I'm the one who put the funk
in the blues.
Yeah.

My mama told me, when I was about the age of five,
says, you grow up to be a blues man
You'd be the Greatest blues man alive.
I can love to heal the sick.
I can love to raise the dead.
I can Make the hair stand up on your head.

I'm the one
tell you.
I'm the one.
I'm the one.
I'm the one.
I'm the one to put the funk in the blues.

When I was just a little boy, bout 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, and come down on the bone
hit the biscuits, 75 licks (Y'all) and make the corn bread moan

I'm the one tell you I'm the one, I'm the one,
I'm the one I'm the one to put the funk in the blues

You can do what you want
I got the funk in the blues

You can't lose with the stuff I use
I'm the one.
