The old man paid no mind to color 'Cause he knew that I'd been down and out Old Joe said that I was a soul brother From the things I'd been singin' about Well, he liked how I played my old guitar So he sit down beside me to sing. And together we hummed out an old timey blues Hmm, do dee dang From the same side of the railroad tracks Where people have nothin' to lose I'm the son of a gambler who's luck never came A white man singin' the blues Well, we both done a heap of hard-livin And hard to describe in a song But the blues was one thing we both understood And the old man hummed right along From the same side of the railroad tracks Where people have nothin' to lose I'm the son of a gambler who's luck never came A white man singin' the blues From the same side of the railroad tracks Where people have nothin' to lose I'm the son of a gambler who's luck never came I'm a white man singin' the blues Now the old man paid no mind to color 'Cause he knew that I'd been down and out Old Joe said I was a soul brother From the things I'd been singin' about
