Blues for the Lost Days
John Mayall

Looking back through the years

Like I got myself a time machine

Memories flood around me

People and places where I've been

I had the blues for the lost days

Way back when times were lean

We had Sonny Boy, Freddy King and Hendrix

And they'd be sitting in till the break of dawn

Sweating at the all night Flamingo

And coming out to pigeons on a Sunday morn

So many raves, so much music

But back then, nobody knew that the London blues were born

So today I got to thinking

Where go friends that drift apart

Some of them are dead and gone now

But they still live on in my heart

I had the blues for the lost days

And there ain't never gonna be no counterpart
