Thank you, my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for posting the music video of Keb' Mo' along with musicians from six countries performing a cover of blues legend Robert Johnson's song "Walking Blues" on Playing For Change | Song Around The World
"We started our version in Patagonia, Argentina with Roberto Luti and Nico Bereciartua playing slide guitars in front of a 100-year-old​ fig tree and with that raw performance, we added friends as we traveled to create a blues jam around the world. "
Great worldwide cover

For comparison here is an original recording

"Walkin' Blues" written by Pete Anthony Alderton, Carsten Mentzel, Robert Johnson
Lyrics
"Woke up this morning, feel 'round for my shoes,
You know 'bout that babe, had them old walkin' blues.
Woke up this morning, I feel 'round for my shoes,
You know 'bout that babe, Lord, I had them old walkin' blues.

Leavin' this morning, I had to go ride the blinds.
I've been mistreated, don't mind dying.
This morning, I had to go ride the blinds,
I've been mistreated, Lord, I don't mind dying.

People tell me walkin' blues ain't bad;
Worst old feeling I most ever had.
People tell me the old walkin' blues ain't bad.
Well it's the worst old feeling, Lord, I most ever had."
