When You Sit Down And Think About

More From Little Richard

The rhythm is below me, the rhythm of the heat. the rhythm is around me, the rhythm has control. the rhythm is inside me, the rhythm has my soul.

Once you change your philosophy, you change your thought pattern. once you change your thought pattern, you change your attitude. once you change your attitude, it changes your behavior pattern and then you go on into some action. as long as you gotta sit-down philosophy, you’ll have a sit-down thought pattern, and as long as you think that old sit-down thought you’ll be in some kind of sit-down action.

When i started off in wales, i sang and accompanied myself with guitar in the '50s. and then i got a band together, which is a rhythm section, really. i used to do a lot of blues, and rhythm and blues, and '50s rock 'n' roll and country, and all kinds of stuff.

The blues? why, the blues are a part of me. they're like a chant. the blues are like spirituals, almost sacred. when we sing blues, we're singing out our hearts, we're singing out our feelings. maybe we're hurt and just can't answer back, then we sing or maybe even hum the blues. when i sing, 'i walk the floor, wring my hands and cry -- yes, i walk the floor, wring my hands and cry,'... what i'm doing is letting my soul out.

I think that the blues is in everything, so it's not possible to neglect it. you hear somebody go 'ooh ooh oooh,' and that's the blues. you hear a rock n' roll song. that's the blues. somebody playing a guitar solo? they're playing the blues.
Song Thinking Rocks
I have heartaches, i have blues. no matter what you got, the blues is there. 'cause that's all i know - the blues. and i can sing the blues so deep until you can have this room full of money and i can give you the blues.
