Elton John - The Ballad Of Blind Tom Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • "Say that boy's a wonderment"
  • "No! The kid's a freak"
  • But that kid he don't care none
  • His black hands resting on the keys
  • Hoppin' like a big old frog
  • And hissin' like a train
  • Entertaining royalty
  • All points east, west and in-between
  • General he's a fine old man
  • Treat him like his own
  • "Boy wouldn't know from money"
  • Just throw old Blind Tom a bone
  • From the times of King Cotton
  • May we present to you
  • All you Jim Crow monkeys
  • From Harlan County down to Tuscaloo
  • Play me anything you like
  • I'll play it back to you
  • Be careful what you call me though
  • Some things cut clear on through
  • I may be an idiot
  • I may be a savant
  • I didn't choose this life for me
  • But it's something that I want
  • *****s that old big head aside
  • Grunts a word or two
  • Keeps 'em guessin' every night
  • Is he really gonna make it through
  • Faint hearts with their fans out
  • Starched collars and cigars
  • He weren't no use for slavin'
  • "I wouldn't want him in my yard"
  • [Chorus x2]
