Low Down Dirty Blues

Omar and the Howlers Omar and the Howlers

Robert Johnson was the king of the blues
He was the best around
I was standing right beside him
On the night the deal went down

Hopped a freight with Johnny Shines
Rode down to New Orleans
We walked the back streets together
You know the man was born to sing

Allow me to introduce myself
I'm what you get when you got nothin´ left
I'm the pain the trouble and the truth
I am the low down dirty blues
I am the low down dirty blues

Followed Mighty Wolf to Memphis
To Sam Phillips and the Risin´ Sun
He put the dust of the delta
In every word of the songs he sung

Muddy Waters was the king pin
The head hocho and the big hoo-doo
I was standing there beside him
When he electrified the blues

Allow me to introduce myself
I'm what you get when you got nothin´ left
I'm the pain the trouble and the truth
I am the low down dirty blues
I am the low down dirty blues
