Minneapolis Mark (Imsdahl, Bear)
Lyrics, vocals, rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and acoustic bass by Merry Bear. Fabulous and greatly appreciated harmonica performance by “Minneapolis” Mark Imsdahl.
MINNEAPOLIS MARK
He’s Minneapolis Mark
He’s got that magic spark
– Makes the mouth harp scream and wail
His mojo never seams to fail
He’s gonna nail it every time
– Bet my antique Mercury dime
You know you’re gonna lose
Now listen to him blow them Blues – Blow them Blues
Now Old Greg Connor knows
Whene’er Mark Imsdahl shows
– Time to get the guitar out
The mouth harp’s gonna cry and shout
They’re gonna make some noise together
– Two birds of a single feather
And Mark has paid his dues
Now listen to him blow them Blues – Blow them Blues
Now Steve and Ron, they know him too
I think that likewise so should you
– For it’s such a wondrous thrill
To hear him make that mouth harp trill
He’s gonna make you feel so good
– Bet my silver buck he could
You know you can’t refuse
Now listen to him blow them Blues – Blow them Blues

I'm mad, sad and scared for you, man. But, you have the right attitude and I hope that we can get together and play on the other side. Look for me. I feel honored to have played with you and will keep your tunes on my playlist… be thinking of you every time i listen… so, you will live on in the hearts of many in a cool way. That's a great legacy to leave. Peace!
Cool song! You have a way with words! I love the harmonica! Anyway, I found your antique mercury dime! :)

hahaha…. no pressure! Ok Merry Bear, Thanks.. this will be fun and I'll get to work on it asap… sounds like key of E, so I'll blow on my A harp. Can I "favorite" this twice?
