Bluesman lyrics

The kid heard the word up in Brooklyn.
It was his second year of medical school.
He went and stashed some jeans into his guitar case,
His father said, "You're a fool".
But the boy jumped on board a Greyhound bus,
It took him two days to get to Mobile,
And though it took two weeks to track the old man down,
He never doubted that the rumor was real.

But there the old man stood by the store front,
With his white cane hanging from his belt.

"I don't need no fool to get me where in the hell I'm bound"

The kid nods his head with a great big grin and says,
"When do we begin?"
That's when the old man said,
"If You're staying with me
This is how it's got to be..."
