0:12Leadbelly's in the background
0:15Being drowned out by the grind
0:18He's singing 'bout "Rock Island Line"
0:22Nobody seems to pay him any mind
0:27Bestsellers and bookshelves
0:30Full of self help printed word
0:33Some faint elegance is heard
0:37Now was that Ellington or Bird
0:42And has it really come to this
0:47Can ignorance be bliss
0:52I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop
0:58Jazz at the bookstore
1:01And Blues in the coffee shop
1:05Jazz at the bookstore
1:09And Blues in the coffee shop
1:18There's a man standing at the crossroads
1:21With a dark roast in his hand
1:24He's Livin' in white yuppy land
1:28Over by the milk and sugar stand
1:34And have I really come for this
1:39A cup of caffeinated bliss
1:43So we browse around
1:45All over town
1:47Sipping coffees that we can't pronounce
1:51Meanwhile in the Blues Cemetery
1:55All the coffins commence to bounce bounce
2:15Leadbelly's in the cold ground
2:18Rolling over in his grave
2:21The hard road where so many slaved
2:25Is now so smooth and paved
2:31And has it really come to this
2:36Can ignorance be bliss
2:41I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop
2:46Jazz at the bookstore
2:51And Blues in the coffee shop
2:54Jazz at the bookstore
2:58And Blues in the coffee shop
3:01Jazz at the bookstore
3:07And Blues in the coffee shop
