New Millennium Blues

 

Every single night when the wind picks up,

And the coals are burning on the fire

You tip your wind and you say your line

Then you smile, we sing for a while

 

We like to have some fun, it’s what we do

And the dogs begin to howl

 

Who knew millennium blues before tonight?

It’s safe to say we paid some dues

 

People, the luckiest people are strangers in the night,

That grew so very quietly as he told me

He said son, “You’re rambling on.”

 

Who knew millennium blues before tonight?

It’s safe to say we paid some dues

And these new millennium blues got me working so hard

Just to spread the news

Such a long long time before we say it again, it’s true

A long long time before we say it again, it’s true

 

I got the box and you got the limes

Everything is chilly here with Gilly on Cloud 9

Just want to celebrate, don’t want to hesitate

Everything is coming our way, everything is coming our way

 

 

Sitting back with reflections of the times that passed us by

Like a ring of fire burning in the sky,

Some say, “You never know…”

 

Who knew millennium blues before tonight?

It’s safe to say we paid some dues

And these new millennium blues got me working so hard

Just to spread the news

Such a long long time before we say it again, it’s true

A long long time before we say it again, it’s true
