Well I woke up Sunday morning, and I went down to the show
The killer blues was waiting, man, but how was I to know
It's surprising and it's frightening, what them killer blues can do
When you very least expect it, they come creepin' up on you
Well, I didn’t see ‘em comin’, they snuck up from behind
No idea that they was hangin’ ‘round
They clouded up my vision, and they shrouded up my mind
Left me unconscious on the ground
Only my pride was bruised, I done beat them killer blues
It's dangerous to be taking 5, when the people want to dance
I stepped down from the bandstand, woke up in the ambulance
The ER doctor told me, son, I’ll give you some good news
Looks like you got here just in time to beat them killer blues
Well, I didn’t see ‘em comin’, they snuck up from behind
No idea that they was hangin’ ‘round
They clouded up my vision, and they shrouded up my mind
Left me unconscious on the ground
Only my pride was bruised, I done beat them killer blues
Well, I didn’t see ‘em comin’, they snuck up from behind
No idea that they was hangin’ ‘round
They clouded up my vision, and they shrouded up my mind
Left me unconscious on the ground
Only my pride was bruised, I done beat them killer blues
Blues asesino
Bueno, me desperté el domingo por la mañana y bajé al espectáculo
El blues asesino estaba esperando, hombre, pero ¿cómo iba a saberlo?
Es sorprendente y aterrador lo que puede hacer ese blues asesino
Cuando menos lo esperas, se viene sigilosamente
Bueno, no lo vi venir, se coló por detrás
Ni idea tenía de que quedaba por ahí
Me nubló la visión y me envolvió la mente
Me dejó inconsciente en el suelo
Solo mi orgullo estaba magullado, le vencí al blues asesino
Es peligroso descansarse, cuando la gente quiere bailar
Bajé del escenario, me desperté en la ambulancia
El médico de urgencias me dijo, hijo, te daré buenas noticias
Parece que llegaste justo a tiempo para vencerlo al blues asesino
Bueno, no lo vi venir, se coló por detrás
Ni idea tenía de que quedaba por ahí
Me nubló la visión y me envolvió la mente
Me dejó inconsciente en el suelo
Solo mi orgullo estaba magullado, le vencí al blues asesino
Bueno, no lo vi venir, se coló por detrás
Ni idea tenía de que quedaba por ahí
Me nubló la visión y me envolvió la mente
Me dejó inconsciente en el suelo
Solo mi orgullo estaba magullado, le vencí al blues asesino
