Blue is a colour, the perception of which is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 450–490 nm. It is considered one of the additive primary colours. On the HSV Colour Wheel, the complement of blue is yellow; that is, a colour corresponding to an equal mixture of red and green light. On a colour wheel based on traditional colour theory (RYB) where blue was considered a primary colour, its complementary colour is considered to be orange (based on the Munsell colour wheel).
In Modern English, "blue" is one of the basic colour terms, and one of the seven spectral colours, intermediate between violet (purple) and cyan. It comprises a considerable number of identifiable subcategories that can be identified with descriptive terms like navy blue (a dark blue), cyan blue (or "blue-green", on the boundary to the green range), or sky blue (azure).
The word itself was loaned into Middle English from the Old French word bleu, blo "pale, pallid, discoloured; blue, blue-grey", itself from an Old Frankish *blao.
Quick may refer to:
We met in a honkey tonk with sawdust on the floor
But I'm not supposed to hang out there anymore
You fell in love with a side of me that you called wild and free
Now that's not the way you want me to be
It must be nice to walk the straight and narrow
See in black and white true as a arrow
But out here on the edge is where I belong
Walkin' that fine line between ragged and wrong
I know you think that you can manke somebody out of me
But the good Lord did that job already, can't you see
I'm sorry if my rebel ways don't fit into your plan
But I kinda like me fine the way I am
It must be nice to walk the straight and narrow
See in black and white true as a arrow
But out here on the edge is where I belong
Walkin' that fine line between ragged and wrong
I've got my own way of bein' true
I've got my own way of lovin' you
If that ain't enough it'll have to do
It must be nice to walk the straight and narrow
See in black and white true as a arrow
But out here on the edge is where I belong
Walkin' that fine line between ragged and wrong
Walkin' that fine line between ragged and wrong
Between ragged and wrong
Between ragged and wrong
Between ragged and wrong
