All Those Heroes
John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
When I was a boy about the age of ten Got some old records by the blues men Found a big connection to my lonely life I couldn't wait to learn some more about them The blues hit me deeper than I'd ever known I knew I'd never be the only one alone So special, all those heroes Blind lemon Jefferson, barbecue bob Blind boy fuller and blind blake The stories they told about the lives they lived Stirred imagination and a heartache Started out playin' on an old guitar Now I get to play the blues near and far So special, all those heroes When I was a man about twenty three I got some Albert Ammons inside me I borrowed a piano and took my time I thought about another king to guide me Yalk about boogie on a piano There ain't a man to beat big maceo So special, all of my heroes The power of the blues make a lion roar Got my harp growling like an old bear So many guys who ain't around no mere Left us a magic we can all share Big bill broonzy and all of his friends The joint be jumpin' till the living end So special, all those heroes The great muddy waters and howling wolf Said a whole lot of livin' in a blues song I'd take me all day namin' all the names So many fellas who are long gone We all got the legacy to carry on The spirit of the blues is gonna live on So special, all my heroes
