I Am The Blues Lyrics - Spread Your Wings & Fly: Filmore East May 30 1971 - Laura Nyro

Cigarettes 

I'm all alone with my smoke and ashes 

Cigarettes 

I'm all alone with my smoke and ashes 

Take me night-flying 

Maybe Mars has good news 

Who?...who am I? 

I am the blues 

soothe me 

Horn's warm red love-makin' 

Funky music 

Move me 

Night wind, red tail lights, and 

Funky music 

'cause I'm restless 

In my love for sale shoes 

Who?...who am I? 

I am the blues 

In a world of war 

I can't find my laughter 

I can't see the night sun 

And I can't see my freedom 

I guess I can't see too much no more 

Baby, till I lose my blues 

Fly through the sky like superfly 

Over the stars we climb 

Over this sweet red wine 

I tell myself 

Right on 

Right on 

Right on 

Right on 

Blues 

Flying so high 

A plane in the sky 

Listen to the music of the night wind
