[Chorus] I am, ohh I am the blues I know the world knows I've been mistreated And the whole world know I've been misused [Verse 1] I am the moan of suffering women I am the groan of dying men I am the last one to start But I am the first one to begin [Chorus] Ohh I am, ohh I am the blues Ooh world knows I've been mistreated The whole world knows I've been misused [Verse 2] I am the blood of peoples wounds, who play and die I am the the last one to hide I am the first one to find [Chorus] Ohh I am ohh I am the blues The world knows I've been mistreated The whole world knows I've been used [Verse 3] Well boys somebody help me I am the new generation A prodigy of starvation I am the arm beyond the door friend For a new new night and nation [Chorus] Yeah the world knows I been mistreated The world knows I've been mistreated The whole world knows I've been misused [Chorus] I am the blues Oh friends I am the blues I am friends I am the blues Yeah the world know I been mistreated The whole world know I been used
