I went to the
unemployment office looking for some way
Causin' bluesmen's luck
comes to him as best
I've been out to four
occupation blues made
Woman, look at me and say
I don't understand
Do you have a trade?
Job references?
Do you have a college degree?
Well, I told that woman I majored in
the blues I'm a graduate in bluesology
I got no regrets, I got no apologies I majored in the blues,
and the blues is in me
Hell yeah, and me
Look at here
I went to the
Jolly
Hooger
High
School of
Blues
They teach you the basics
If you play your tunes
I went to the college
Of
Memphis
Swim
I practice and practice and practice
Today we're calluses on my calluses
I got my masters from the old
Leicester school
Rabbi
Johnson,
Muddy
Waters and
Harlan
Wolfe too
Playin' on the road, I took a
PhD
Where the hustles and bustles,
Lord you know they never cease
Got no regrets, I've got no apologies I made it in the blues,
and the blues is in me
Yeah, yeah, blues is in me
When I got back home,
told my woman how it went
They wanted to give me a job
that really made no sense
Wanted to teach me how to type and
work a computer machine
But I ain't never heard no computer sing
So listen here woman,
one thing I got to know
Are you gonna stay with me,
or are you gonna go?
Cause I'm gonna play the
blues all of my days
Until I'm dead and buried
and they roll me away
I got no regrets, and I got no apologies
I made it in the blues,
and the blues is in me
Yeah, yeah, blues is in me
Yeah, yeah
Got no regrets, no, no
Got no apologies, no, no
The blues is true, like
Manny
McGee said
I'm gonna play the blues until I'm dead
I got no regrets, nah, nah
I got no regrets, nah, nah
I got no regrets, no, no
I got no regrets
Got no regrets
Yeah, yeah
I got no regrets
Oh
You
