Monika Brodka - They Say I'm Different

They say I'm different
'Cause I'm a piece of sugar cane
Sweet to the core
That's why I got rhythm
My great grandma
Didn't like the foxtrot
Instead she'd spit her snuff
And boogie to Elmore James

They say I'm different
'Cause I eat chitlins
I can't help it I was born
And raised on 'em, that's right
Every mornin' I'd have to slop the hogs
And they'd be gettin' off
Humpin' to John Lee Hooker

They say I'm different
'Cause I'm a piece of sugar cane
And when I kick my legs, I got rhythm
My great grandpa was a blues lover
He'd be rockin' his moonshine
To B.B. King and Jimmy Reed, rock on now

And that's why they say I'm different
And that's why they say I'm strange

I'm talkin' 'bout Big Momma Thornton
I'm talkin' 'bout Lightning Hopkins
I'm talkin' 'bout Howling Wolf
I'm talkin' 'bout Albert King
Chuck Berry, Chuck Berry, Chuck Berry
When I was sweet sixteen

And that's why they say I'm different
And that's why you think I'm strange

I'm talkin' bout T-Bone Walker
I get my Muddy Waters
I'm talkin' 'bout Leadbelly
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee
Son House and Freddie King
Bessie Smith, Bessie Smith, oh hey
Bo Diddley have you heard

That's why they say I'm different
That's why they say I'm strange

That's why they say I'm funky
Little Richard wow you sure showed 'em
you sure could sing
Robert Johnson, Robert Johnson, Robert Johnson
He played the blues for me

And that's wh and that's why
And that's why they say I'm different

And that's why and that's why
And that's why they say I'm strange

And that’s why, why, why, why
And that’s why, why, why, why
And that’s why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why

They say I’m funky, funky, funky
They say I’m funky, funky, funky …
