GKB - Everybody Understands the Blues - Live at the Wilson Abbey
From the GKB concert on March 4th, 2023 at the Wilson Abbey in Chicago
Uptown, downtown, all around
You can see it in their faces
Down to the holes in their shoes
Everybody understands the blues
Black and white
Brown and yellow
Red man too
Regardless of their wallet
Sometimes they win sometimes they lose
Only one thing for certain
Everybody understands the blues
Death and taxes
Political scams
Bill collectors who’ll snag you if they can
A leak in the ceiling
Rush hour jams
I’ll say it again no matter where I go or when
You can see it in their faces
Down to the holes in their shoes
There ain’t no doubt about it
Everybody understands the blues
I know there are solutions
But very few of them will last
So many running hopeless
Too man running outa gas
Be a prophet or a king
A sinner or a saint
A lawyer or a liar
A believer in fate
No matter what you’ve done He knows what you’re going through
Hey, everybody understands the blues
