Blue With Lou - Nils Lofgren

Hellfire and brimstone blottin' out the Sun

They’re sellin' seats to Mars

Peddling wonder and fun

I ain’t suspicious, it’s a blatant ugly stain

May pray for peace

Still we’re all in this mad game

Deep down in this mad game

Deep down, deep down

Gonna dance ‘til I forget

My blood and soul duet

I’m goin' blue with Lou

I’m goin' blue with Lou

Sick of burying friends and heroes

Every fear I feel

Gonna tango in the madness

Find an inner flame to burn or heal

World peace fantasies like flirting with a corpse

Let’s flay the evil down to dust

Let kindness be a hammer force

Mighty hammer force, kindness, kindness

The answer’s in the wind like Magic Bobby said

Let’s battle now like Angels

'Cause we all gonna wind up dead

Blue with Lou

I’m goin' blue with Lou

Hey, better all come too

Goin' blue with Lou

Lou’s walk on the wild side

Still profound and profane

King of that street corner

His words slash and lick the pain

Out to seize my wild side

Turn all the stupid off

Ancient has it’s charm now

But never old and soft

Never old and soft, never

Gonna dance 'til I remember

How to torch this fading ember

Light it up, light it up

Goin' blue with Lou

I’m goin' blue with Lou

Hey, you better all come too

Goin' blue with Lou, blue, blue

Blue, blue, blue with Lou

Marching together (Marching together)

Singing together (Singing together)

Dancin' together (Dancin' together)

I’m goin' deep dynamite

Gonna find me some peace tonight

I’m goin' deep dynamite

Gonna find me and my Jersey girl

Some peace tonight

I’m goin' blue with Lou

I’m goin' blue with Lou

You better all come too

Goin' blue with Lou

Marchin' together

Come on march, come on march, come on march…

Everybody take a hand

Marchin' to the promised land

Everybody take a stand

Marchin' to the promised land…

Blue with Lou…
