'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue
'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue
God, He mourned and the tears rolled down His face
It broke His heart to see His children fall from grace
Everybody gets the blues, everybody got to pay
And He looked around the neighborhood
Made a man and a woman out of blood, sweat and dirt
The blues is been around ever since that day
And He said to His self, "This is good"
But you know that ain't the truth
But you know that ain't the truth
And what we put each other through
The devil tempted woman and woman tempted man
God made the wind to blow the shifting sands
For the wicked things we do
He put the fishes in the, in the deep blue sea
And God looked around the neighborhood
'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue
And on the 7th day they say, "God rested"
'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue
God made the heavens, God made the earth
But the devil he was jealous, took the apple in his hand
And He said to His self, "This is good"
Filled up the garden with flowers and the trees
God made the rivers and the mountains with his hands
And on the 7th day they say, "God rested"
