When his daddy got caught stealing chickens from a neighbor one day.

APoor (x02220@1)Elijah, born the son of a slave.
	     DPoor (xx0232@1)Elijah, he was damn near blind when he died last week
From working in the sun for the man like a dog all day.

TRIBUTE TO JOHNSON

AI'm (x02220@1)going to sing you a song, a song about a man
Nobody hardly knows him.
Nobody hardly knows him.
Nobody hardly knows him.

G#-A (slide up from G# to A)    G#-A
Good morning Robert Johnson son.
G#-A		               G#-A

People agree and now you're number one.
