lyrics

Blue Line Blues

Music & lyrics Kevin Paul, John Cohmer
(c) Copyright 2015 MP3 Blues Allstars

I’m the whiskey in the coffee…honey in the tea
Take a moment if you will and point your eyes at me
I’m the freeman… freedom running through my veins
As my county’s going bad I’ll be breaking through the reins

The blue line blues getting tougher everyday
If we can’t keep our freedom there’ll be hell to pay
The blue line blues, fight the blue line blues.
I got the blue line blues, fight the blue line blues

The truth is coming out the people plainly see
The questions have been answered its not a mystery
The guilty will be served in just a matter of time
And the people stand and watch as they cross the thin blue line

There’s no point to continue down this way
If we can’t keep our freedom there’ll be hell to pay
The blue line blues, fight the blue line blues.
I got the blue line blues, fight the blue line blues

Could be the man is crazy or just a big blue shill
A badge and belt with all the toys, shooting them at will
Protect and serve that’s what they say but we know that’s not true
The biggest gang in your home town comes dressed up all in blue

The blue line blues getting tougher everyday
If we can’t keep our freedom there’ll be hell to pay
The blue line blues, fight the blue line blues.
I got the blue line blues, fight the blue line blues

The MP3 Blues Allstars is a group of talented dedicated Blues musicians, who met at MP3(.)com over 17 years ago (1998). They began a tradition of working in cyberspace to create new Blues recordings and have gotten together on a semi-regular basis to make new recordings in the real world.
The MP3 Blues Allstars LA sessions in April 2015 were fantastic. Look for more new Blues recordings soon... ... more
