All the way from New Orleans to Jerusalem.
I traveled through East Texas where many martyrs
fell
And I know one thing, nobody can sing them blues
like Blind Willie McTell.
Well, I heard the hoot-owl singing as they were
taking down the tents
The stars above all the barren trees were his
only audience.
Yeah, them charcoal gypsy maidens can strut their
feathers well
And I know one thing, nobody can sing them blues
like Blind Willie McTell.
See them big plantations a-burning, can't you
hear the cracking of the whips,
Smell that sweet magnolia blossom blooming, see
the ghosts of the slavery ships.
Well, I can hear them tribes a-moanin', I can
hear the undertaker's bell
And I know one thing, nobody can sing them blues
like Blind Willie McTell.
There's a woman she's standing by the river, she
is with some fine young handsome man
See he's all dressed just like a squire, he's got
bootleg whiskey in his hand.
Yeah, there's a chain-gang out on the highway and
I can hear them rebels yell
And I know one thing, nobody can sing them blues
like Blind Willie McTell.
God, oh God is in Heaven and we all want what is
His
But the power and greed, the corruptible seed
seems to be all that there is.
Hey, hey, I'm a-gazing out the window of the St.
James Hotel
And I know one thing, nobody can sing them blues
like Blind Willie McTell.
Hey, hey, I know one thing, nobody can sing them
blues like Blind Willie McTell.
