Royalties

Written by C Hues

February 3, 2024

I’m singing the blues
Because they took my music
Without paying me.

They got the credit.
And now, I got bad credit.
I live to serve you.

I’ll take my black ass
Back to the Delta to die.
There’s no funeral.

I’m blues royalty,
So I get no royalties.
All I get is got.
