Lyrics

When I was a young boy my father told me: “son,
if you wanna get ahead in life, don’t stay behind no one.
There’s more to this world, than I can ever show.
So, this is where I have to let you go.

Play your blues in the morning.
Play your blues while the moon is shining bright.
Even when we’re apart, you’re always in my heart.
Play your blues, ‘cause you were born this way.”

As I hit the road he said: “son, bear in mind,
don’t think of home as a place, but a state of mind.
Get your loving from the sweetest heart,
your wisdom from the grey.
So, you can pass it all along some day.

And play your blues in the morning.
Play your blues while the moon is shining bright.
Even when we’re apart, you’re always in my heart.
Play your blues, ‘cause you were born this way.”

Now that I’ve become a man, he still calls me: “son,
everything you are today, was right there all along.
The greatest gift in life is to be who you are.
You’ll always nd a song your guitar.

And play your blues in the morning.
Play your blues while the moon is shining bright.
Even when we’re apart, you’re always in my heart.
Play your blues, ‘cause you were born this way.”
