Lyrics:

Just after I left school, I begin working for living

Came home one day from a hard day's digging

Went down to my blues collection

Just for some peace of mind

And I got the word Elmore James is gone

It seems like I lost a friend of mine

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

It's a shame, crying shame

No more Elmore James

When I was mannish boy, when I was in high school

My biggest influence was a 45 record made me wanted it

The music freaks would gather from all over town

'Til early in the morning we laid the beat on down, yeah

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

It's a shame, crying shame

No more Elmore James

As I grew older the music grow with me

I knew that soon one of these days

I would be out on the road

With own with my own rock 'n' roll show

We made the people sing, we made the people dance

Good old blues music puts everybody in a trance

We kept in the guitar, no more Elmore James

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

It's a shame, crying shame

No more Elmore James, no more Elmore James

When I'm feeling down and all messed up inside

Put an Elmore on the box and groove to it and step inside

Elmore, I take him everywhere

As I travel down this lonesome road

Lord, I hold him down there

I sang by crossroad, had the full of him on

And I know for sure it's true love that counts

And I loved you Elmore, no more Elmore James

It's a shame, crying shame

No more Elmore James, no more Elmore

No more Elmore, no more Elmore James

No more Elmore James

Couldn't believe my ears, couldn't believe my eyes

I have to go through life without hearing that style

Oh-ha, take it away

I got it on my back

As I walk down the long road of life

No more Elmore James, no more Elmore James

Ooh, cry, cry, cry
