i am, ohh i am the blues
i know the world knows i’ve been mistreated
and the whole world know i’ve been misused
i am the moan of suffering women
i am the groan of dying men
i am the last one to start
but i am the first one to begin
ohh i am, ohh i am the blues
ooh world knows i’ve been mistreated
the whole world knows i’ve been misused
i am the blood of peoples wounds, who play and die
i am the the last one to hide
i am the first one to find
ohh i am ohh i am the blues
the world knows i’ve been mistreated
the whole world knows i’ve been used
well boys somebody help me
i am the new generation
a prodigy of starvation
i am the arm beyond the door friend
for a new new night and nation
yeah the world knows i been mistreated
the world knows i’ve been mistreated
the whole world knows i’ve been misused
i am the blues
oh friends i am the blues
i am friends i am the blues
yeah the world know i been mistreated
