I was browsing Genius earlier and saw that there was a whole section on the lyrics page for Memphis Slim's "Blue and Lonesome" (which I don't want to link to, as it contains unlicensed copyrighted lyrics) that goes out of its way to specify the two songs by Memphis Slim and Little Walter only share a title and are not the same song, as "they have distinctly different lyrics & chords and are played in different keys (Memphis Slim's song is in C major and Little Walter's in D minor)". I'm aware Genius is a user-generated source, hence why I have not used it as a citation, but this appears to be fact through looking at the lyrics of both and listening to them, so I've split the Little Walter song to Blue and Lonesome (Little Walter song) as that is the version covered by the Rolling Stones, which they named their 2016 album after.
