I Said, I'm Going To Stand Up

When I Went To Chicago, I'll Put It Like This: I Was Looking For A Dime And I Found A Quarter.

Listen To The Lyrics - We're Singing About Everyday Life: Rich People Trying To Keep Money, Poor People Tying To Get It, And Everyone Having Trouble With Their Husband Or Wife!

I Didn't Look Up And Say, "oh, Man, If I Learn How To Play A Guitar I Could Make Not Much Money, But I'd Make A Decent Living Like Eric Clapton Or Somebody." There Wasn't Nothing Like That Out There.

They Just Said, 'roll The Tape.' No Rehearsal Or Nothing... Muddy [waters] Didn't Come In And Say 'i Wanna Rehearse.' He Used To Look At Me And Say 'let's Just Play The Blues. That's All You Need To Do.

If You Don't Think You've Got The Blues, Just Keep Living, And If You Don't Think You're Drunk, Just Keep Drinking What You're Drinking.
