Well, in 1940 in Daly County
I was born with this raspy voice
My California mama and my Texas papa
With gospel music in my soul
Sang blue -eyed rock and roll
Lookin' for a place to land
I am the white, black, blue -eyed tango
Lookin' for a boogie -woogie band
Can you? Can you play that tang?
The more I got, the more I learned
Slow music found my heart
Needin' to sing, I wanna do that thing
Where would a white boy start?
And the color of your skin
If you can feel it in your heart
Someday you oughta jump on in
I am a white, black, blue eyed singer
Lookin' for a place to sing
I'm a white, white, blue eyed singer
Looking just to do my thing
went down to Nashville, Tennessee
And being a rocker, it sure was a shocker
when they did not like me
The Alabama band took me by the hand,
said, son, you're gonna loosen your load
Get on the bus, you're going with us,
we're gonna take you on the road
looking for a place to land,
I am the white, black, blue -eyed singer
Looking for a wookiee, wookiee band
Can you, can you play that thing?
I'm the white, black, blue -eyed singer
I am a white, black, blue -eyed singer
I'm lookin' for a boogie -woogie band
I am a white, black, blue -eyed singer
I'm a white, black, blue -eyed singer
Fight back, relax and hate
