Sanoja: Kate Campbell. Genesis Blues.

They say god walked in the garden
between the tigris and Euphrates
they say god walked in the garden
between the tigris and euphrates
but we all know that eden
is down in the delta south of memphis

eve and adam ate the apple
stood there naked in the sun
eve and adam ate the apple
stood there naked in the sun
but when god came looking for them
oh they knew what they had done

jesus is lord of picayune
and mississippi welcomes you
jesus is lord of picayune
and mississippi welcomes you
just remember when you're passing thru
everything started with the blues
there's a place that they call witchdance
where not one blade of grass will grow
there's a place that they call witchdance
where not one blade of grass will grow
something awful bad went down there
or so the story goes

you can read all about it
on a sign by the side of the road
you can read all about it
on a sign by the side of the road
but sometimes the way things happened
ain't the way the story's told

jesus is lord of picayune
and mississippi welcomes you
jesus is lord of picayune
and mississippi welcomes you
just remember when you're passing thru
everything started with the blues
he broke his nehi bottle
and laid it cross the strings
he broke his nehi bottle
and laid it cross the strings
then he took that sears & roebuck silvertone
and really made that guitar sing

that's all right mama
any way you do
that's all right now mama
any ole way you do
we all feel it too
cause everything started with the blues
