[Verse 1]
The old man paid no mind to color
'Cause he knew that I'd been down and out
Old Joe said that I was a soul brother
From the things I'd been singing about
Well, he liked how I played my old guitar
So he sat by beside me to sing
Together we hummed out an old-timey blues
Hmm, hmm, doo dee dang
[Chorus]
From the same side of the railroad tracks
Where people have nothing to lose
I'm the son of a gambler whose luck never came
A white man singin' the blues
[Verse 2]
Well, we both done a heap of hard living
Ain't hard to describe in a song
But the blues was one thing we both understood
And the old man hummed right along
[Chorus]
From the same side of the railroad tracks
Where people have nothing to lose
I'm the son of a gambler whose luck never came
A white man singin' the blues
[Chorus]
From the same side of the railroad tracks
Where people have nothing to lose
I'm the son of a gambler whose luck never came
And a white man singin' the blues
[Verse 1]
The old man paid no mind to color
'Cause he knew that I'd been down and out
Old Joe said that I was a soul brother
From the things I'd been singing about
