"One day I was walking down old cemetery road off in the distance i could hear some of the sweetest blues being played, so sweet it'd make a bluejay weep. As i I made my way further on down the road the music grew louder the closer I got to that abandoned old cemetery I'd passed a thousand times before and a thousand times to come. Through the old ramshackled Iron gate arch i saw a peculiar sight as though a paintin framed in iron. I seen a young man sittin on an old headstone playing those blues in front of a group of people. And when the bluesman stopped playing, turned and looked right at me just a standing there under that iron arch, all the people vanished in a mire of fog. And there we stood in silence just me and that bluesman. I still hear them blues coming from that old cemetery from time to time. Sweetest blues the kind that make dyin seem not so bad."
