Blues for Memphis Slim: Birth / Mother Earth / Mr. Charlie / Danish Pastry / Mother Earth War (Ft. Eric Burdon)

[Birth]

You know when you're born
You first see light of day
Through a gap in your mother's legs
It's the truth
And from that minute on
Most of us guys
And some of you girls
Spend your life
Trying to get back into a hole, mmm-hmm
But, don't worry
Because if you make it
If you don't make it
They're gonna dig a hole for you eventually in the ground
And slot you right back to Mother Earth

[Mother Earth]

Mother Earth is waitin' for you, yes she is
She is big and she's round
And it's cold way down in the ground
You may not be happy all the time
You may never be that way
Mother Earth is waitin' for you
For that debt you've got to pay
