I Don't Do Nothing I Don't Want

The One Thing The Blues Don't Get Is The Backing And Pushing Of Tv And Radio Like A Lot Of This Garbage You Hears. They Choke Stuff Down People's Throat So They Got No Choice But To Listen To It.

My Style Is All To Myself.

I Been Doing The Same Things As In My Younger Days, When I Was Coming Up, And Now Here I Am, An Old Man, Up There In The Charts. And I Say, Well, What Happened? Have They Just Thought Up The Real John Lee Hooker, Is That It? And I Think, Well, I Won't Tell Nobody Else! I Can't Help But Wonder What Happened.

I Don't Play A Lot Of Fancy Guitar. I Don't Want To Play It. The Kind Of Guitar I Want To Play Is Mean, Mean Licks.

Poor People Have The Blues Because They're Poor And Hungry. Rich People Can't Sleep At Night Because They're Trying To Hold On To Their Money And Everything They Have.
