ELIJAH BLUE
(copyright 2000)

He pulled on in, to Nashville Town
It was cold, the rain was pouring down
The memories of Legends filled his head

The lightening struck, and the thunder roared
As the ghost of HANK, came through the door
In frozen silence, this is what he said, what he said,

Now some they come, and some they go
They walk those streets on Music Row
Where dreams and broken promises come true
You learn the game, and you learn to play
For tomorrow’s just another day
And someday you may play the music too
Just listen to your heart - Elijah Blue
Elijah Blue 

Elijah played the guitar thing
Yeah, His Mother taught him how to sing
An Angelic voice, she made the Angels cry

His Pa was proud, and his Pa was strong
And about him Elijah wrote his songs
Elijah knew he had to make his try
Make his try

So he packed his bags, and he hit the road
His ol’ guitar was his only load
He headed towards the dreams he’d come to know

You pay the piper, you dance the dance
Elijah knew he’d get his chance
And on the wind, the words of HANK did blow,
Elijah, walk the streets on Music Row, 
On Music Row

(Turnaround)

He sang his heart out to the stars
At all the Honk Tonks and Bars
He sang for many, sometimes sang for few

He’d sing ‘em short, yeah he’d sing ‘em long
and the people came to hear his songs
He knew the words that HANK had said were true
Just listen to your heart - Elijah Blue
Elijah Blue.
