Stevie Wonder - Story

I Call It Pretty Music but the Old People Call It the Blues, Pt. 1

I was sittin' in my classroom the other day
Playin' my harmonica in a mellow way
Some teachers seemed to have gathered around
Tryin' to figure out what I was puttin' down

I called it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues

Ain't that pretty mad?

They were lookin' at me sittin' there all alone
Mumblin' to each other in a real low tone
I couldn't figure out what they was sayin'
They couldn't understand what I was playin'

Well, I called it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues

Ain't that pretty mad

Well, I called it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues, ooh yeah
I called it pretty music
But the old people call it the blues
