DeBlanc’s <br />Kansas City sax growls <br />At Billie’s parachuting guitar riffs <br />A new gospel is born <br />As the congregation <br />Greet the Upsetters <br />With jubulation <br />It’s the way of the bar band <br />When they take the risk <br />To do something new <br />And when it comes from the heart <br />It always rings true
