Jo Ann - a tribute to the late blues singer Jo Ann Kelly.

Jo Ann - Written and performed by Shelagh McConnell and 3 Dollar Ticket. Lyrics below: A quiet little white girl from South London With a heart full of Mississippi blues Pickin her guitar, her reputation travelled far Out in Tennessee they heard the news Feted by the new electric blues bands But mighty Memphis Minnie was her queen Singin them old songs, makin right of them old wrongs The best at them old blues you've ever seen Jo Ann, takin it back where it began Singin old, singin bold and singin true Oh, Jo Ann, I hope we never forget you She'd be playin at the old Half Moon in Putney Or the Nashville Rooms way over in West Ken Free entry at the pubs, we'd try to blag it at the clubs Money was in short supply back then Down into the bowels of the Hundred Club Or crushed among the crowd at the Marquee We were criss-crossin town on trains above and below ground Happy we were on our way to see repeat chorus A little more time Just a little more time If we could have kept you a little more time repeat chorus copyright: Shelagh McConnell 2015 Category Music
