Mr. Big Time Blues took at seat As always, to the left of the bar Sat real tall, never looked around Nodded his head, double bourbon neat Dusty old fella, but sharp and calm Everyone made their assumptions; Killer hit man, wall street tycoon, Ex-marine, business owner of steel, depending on the viewers, it was always some different assumption He would sit there round after round Sitting taller after drink after drink Getting up here and there Dime in the jukebox in the corner Went back to his seat, and nodded He would sit and soak in the music He would take in all the eyes And I knew he would go back home and continue his novel, Mr. Big time Blues was a writer With a six gun in his trousers and a mind full of the blues and whiskey

Mr. Big Time Blues
Mr. Big Time Blues took at seat As always, to the left of the bar Sat real tall, never looked around Nodded his head, double bourbon neat Dusty old fella, but sharp and calm Everyone made their assumptions; Killer hit man, wall street tycoon, Ex-marine, business owner of steel, depending on the viewers, it was always some different assumption He would sit there round after round Sitting taller after drink after drink Getting up here and there Dime in the jukebox in the corner Went back to his seat, and nodded He would sit and soak in the music He would take in all the eyes And I knew he would go back home and continue his novel, Mr. Big time Blues was a writer With a six gun in his trousers and a mind full of the blues and whiskey
