Transcript
00:00In a little town where the rivers weave
00:30Chasin' the shadows where the wildflowers grew
00:33Every morning together they'd rise with the sun
00:37With a banjo and fiddle, their day had begun
00:41Blue was his name and the blues were his game
00:45He'd strum on the strings, always chasin' that fame
00:48In a blue-painted house by a shimmering lake
00:52Under a bright blue sky, he felt no heartache
00:56With fingers a-flyin', he picked every chord
01:05The echoes of laughter, his only reward
01:09With his blue healer, they danced through the grass

02:19Through the pouring rain, he found his sweet bliss
02:36In the howling wind
02:37It was freedom, not amiss
