The Way of the Blues Man
A guitar slung on his back
A piano stands at his side
We have waited too long
To join in on this awesome ride
"Didn't It Rain?" has been given us
By Bluesy Englishman Hugh Laurie
His music reaches into our souls
As he exposes his in all its glory
Taking from the Chairman of the Board
And grabbing "One for the Road"
Or begging to "Unchain My Heart"
In Ray Charles' smooth mode
He digs down and gives us the pain
Of each heartbreaking note
And lays out the most wonderful songs
That a bluesman ever wrote
Hugh says these songs move him
Like nothing else ever did
He has been playing and loving them
Since he was just a young kid
So sit back and give a listen
Grab a glass of whiskey for your hand
Be ready to appreciate music
Both glorious and grand
