One Step - BluesWorks (3:20)

Judy Luis-Watson wrote this song, which offers hope and encouragement to those who have suffered a loss. Judy sings beautifully and plays piano, while Paul Watson lays down sweet harp lines and Colleen Dugan drives the feeling with her excellent djembe. This song was recorded live at the Augusta Heritage Workshops' 2004 Vocal Week concert. One Step is also the title of their latest CD. Judy and Paul co-founded BluesWorks in 1991 and conduct a range of blues music education programs. For more about BluesWorks, their CDs and schedule, visit www.bluesworksband.biz.

LYRICS: ONE STEP

Cold creepin' 'round your heart
Can't find your feet, make a new start
Head's so heavy, feet like lead
Big snake tied you to your bed

Ice cold, sweats all night
Winter won't quit, fire burning white
Fear pumpin', got you jumping high
Dark clouds rollin' like a butterfly

Take one step, move one step along, one step, keep movin' along
One step, take one step along,
Go on, go on and sing your song, mooove, you gotta move along

Wrong or right, gotta stay right here
Can't run or hide, gotta fight the fight
Been gone too long, too far to turn back
Put your shades on, get your hat off the rack....like that (hold two bars)

Take one step, move one step along, one step, keep moving along
One step, take one step along,
Go on, Go on and sing your song, mooove, you gotta move along
Keep moving along….

Take one step!
