Kids Got The Blues
Composer(s): John Mayall
Performer(s): John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers



There's a new generation
Who could ever have guessed
All across every nation
And I must confess

When I was just a young lad
I wished I could be playin' the blues
Now it's the twenty-first century
We've come a long way

Ev'ry kid's got those heroes
They're learnin' to play
To make a contribution
Look at all kids with the blues

When you hear that click
You better catch up quick
Ain't that a kick
We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

(Instrumental Break)

It's the same at every concert
Check out the front row
Parents with their children, watchin' them grow
Now they're motivated, won't be long before they're playin' the blues

When you hear that click
You better catch up quick
Now ain't that a kick
We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

(Instrumental Break)

It's a heavy situation
Don't need a new drug
The kids of our nation catchin' that bug
All around the world I hear the sound of kids playin' the blues

When you hear that click
You better catch up quick
Now ain't that a kick
We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

Now ain't that a kick
We got the kids turnin' on to the blues
Ain't that a kick
We got the kids turnin' on to the blues
