(Gary Moore)
|
I wasn't born in Chigaco,
|
But I can play the blues.
|
I wasn't part of no union,
|
But I paid my dues.
|
|
I never got into a train wreck,
|
But I went off the rails.
|
I never went under the hammer,
|
'cause I was hard as nails.
|
|
I never swam in dirty water,
|
But my name was mud.
|
I never knew you was a virus,
|
But you got into my blood.
|
|
I never was a politician,
|
But I learned to lie.
|
I never led a delegation,
|
I was too smart to try.
|
|
I wasn't born in Chigaco,
|
But I can play the blues.
|
I wasn't part of no union,
|
But I paid my dues.
|
|
I never was no kind of prisoner,
|
But I've been to jail.
|
And I was never in a train wreck,
|
But I went off the rails, big time.
|
|
I never swam in dirty water,
|
But my name was mud.
|
I never knew you was a virus,
|
You got into my blood, blood.
|
|
I wasn't born in Chigaco,
|
But I can play the blues, ah.
