Blues Brothers, The ~ Can't Play The Blues In An Airconditioned Room


All my life i had to struggle, i paid some heavy dues Squeekin' out a livin', playin' easy blues Then one day my music made me a millionaire I bought a big old mansion with central heated air Now i got more money than i know how to use Got everything a man could want, but i ain't got no blues Success for me could only lead to my immediate doom 'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room Now i was doin' better with a smaller piece of pie But all my fame and fortune i can't identify I lost the inspiration that came natural in the start I have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heart Now my life's too easy, i'd be getting soft I used to play the blues all day, but now i just play golf Now all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too 'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room You know what i'm saying It's kinda hard to play the blues If you don't have any problems You might think i'm crazy, you might think i'm strange The first thing in the morning i'm gonna make a change I throw away my money, i move back to that shag Do whatever i gotta do to get that old feelin' back I know i'd be feelin' better with nothing left to lose When times are bad, the less i had, the better i played the blues I buy myself some turkey and wine, and howl it at the moon 'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room If i should die tomorrow you can write it on my tomb 'he couldn't play the blues in an airconditioned room' more free lyrics

All my life i had to struggle, i paid some heavy dues
Squeekin' out a livin', playin' easy blues
Then one day my music made me a millionaire
I bought a big old mansion with central heated air
Now i got more money than i know how to use
Got everything a man could want, but i ain't got no blues
Success for me could only lead to my immediate doom
'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room

Now i was doin' better with a smaller piece of pie
But all my fame and fortune i can't identify
I lost the inspiration that came natural in the start
I have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heart
Now my life's too easy, i'd be getting soft
I used to play the blues all day, but now i just play golf
Now all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too
'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room

You know what i'm saying
It's kinda hard to play the blues
If you don't have any problems

You might think i'm crazy, you might think i'm strange
The first thing in the morning i'm gonna make a change
I throw away my money, i move back to that shag
Do whatever i gotta do to get that old feelin' back
I know i'd be feelin' better with nothing left to lose
When times are bad, the less i had, the better i played the blues
I buy myself some turkey and wine, and howl it at the moon
'cause i can't play the blues in an airconditioned room

If i should die tomorrow you can write it on my tomb
'he couldn't play the blues in an airconditioned room'

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
