True story of Murali held by Jimi Hendrix as a baby!

In The Room With Jimi

My daddy told me when I came of age. You were in a bassinet there by the stage. Then one night Jimi came down to the scene. I never knew what a surprise it would be. I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me. I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me.

We didn't have much money but the music flowed free. Daddy used to jam with Jimi and my mom was so pretty. Now those days are gone and they say it's a pity. You can't hang around or smoke in New York city.  I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me. I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me.  

The drunk said "you were born to do great things, just listen to how you're daddy makes the guitar sing". I thought he was right but I had to find my style. Rhythm and Blues helped me find it after a while.  I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me. I was in the room with Jimi, Jimi's in the room with me.
