Blind John the guitar player
Singing out each day
Blind John the guitar player
Love might make him play
Blind John the guitar player
Giving it away
Blind John the guitar player
Never sees the day
Blind John the guitar player
Paid up all his dues
Blind John the guitar player
Singing simple blues
Blind John the guitar player
Gospel means good news
Blind John the guitar player
Tell us something new
And you know he said to me
Just how special life could be
If everybody else could see as clear as me
Old John the guitar player
Taking careful aim
Blind John the guitar player
Songs to ease the pain
Blind John the guitar player
Cooling down the flames
Blind John the guitar player
He ain't got no last name
Blind John the guitar player
Fingers on my face
Blind John the guitar player
Never leaves a trace
Blind John the guitar player
Help us through the day
Blind John the guitar player
The night's not far away
And that smile on his face
Shining pennies in his case
Tell us that he's won the race and now he's through
Blind John the guitar player
Singing out each day
Blind John the guitar player
Love might make him play
Blind John the guitar player
Singing out each day
Blind John the guitar player
Giving it away
Blind John the guitar player
Singing out each day
Blind John the guitar player
Love might make him play
Singing out each day
Blind John the guitar player
Love might make him play
Blind John the guitar player
Giving it away
Blind John the guitar player
Never sees the day
Blind John the guitar player
Paid up all his dues
Blind John the guitar player
Singing simple blues
Blind John the guitar player
Gospel means good news
Blind John the guitar player
Tell us something new
And you know he said to me
