I'm gonna fight for you, J.B.
Your passing made so many cry
I'm gonna fight for you, J.B.
Your passing made so many cry

But you are resting now from struggle
Up in God's land beyond the sky

Well, I believe you got a bad deal
And that's something I want put right
I believe you got a bad deal
And that's something I want put right

Well, I wanna people hear your blues
And keep them thinking day and night

Well, you are born in Mississippi
And now you're laid to rest out there
You were born in Mississippi
And now you're laid to rest out there

But I'm gonna fight for you, J.B.
I want your blues out everywhere
