I Got The Same Old Blues
(j.j. cale)
Have you heard that rumor thats goin around
My babys got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
Yes I heard the news its the same old blues again
Well I wrote you a letter, must have read it wrong
Stood at the doorway and baby you was gone
Took a lot of courage
To let the telephone ring
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Well you gave me the business, though I didnt mind
cause I got a lot of patience, lord got a lot of time
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Here come my blues
Gonna find me a mountain and gonna hide out
Aint talkin to you babe, lord I aint comin back
Well I heard that rumor, tell where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Have you heard that rumor thats goin around
My babys got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will this end
Yes I heard the news its the same old blues again

Im Gonna Leave You
(dusty springfield / madeline bell / lesley duncan)
Ive been trying hard to see
Just what you want of me
But its no good boy
Im setting you free
cause I need you so much more
With each day that passes by
You dont seem to care
Its making me cry
So Im packing up my bags
Gonna make my getaway
Get myself together
I cant go on this way
Oh, baby, baby
Im gonna leave you
Im gonna leave you, baby
This lonely feeling deep in my mind
cause I cant turn back
If I leave you behind
But I gotta do it now
Yes, I gotta turn away
Hold me one more time
Dont ask me to stay
Its so hard so say goodbye
But its you Im thinking of
It would never work out
I know youre not in love with me
Oh, baby
Im gonna leave you
Said, Im gonna leave you
Its over and Im walking out on you
Youll never get the chance to feel untrue
Though I love you
And I need you
And I want you
Im still walking out on you
Darling, though it hurts me so inside
I cant take no more
Gonna lose my mind
So Im packing up my bags
Gonna make my getaway
Get myself together
I cant go on this way
Oh, baby, baby
Im gonna leave you
Said Im gonna leave you, baby
Yes Im gonna leave you, baby
Oh, Im gonna leave you baby
Ooh, ooh

Backlash Blues
Langston hughes, nina simone
Mr. backlash, mr. backlash
Just who do think I am
You raise my taxes, freeze my wages
And send my son to vietnam
You give me second class houses
And second class schools
Do you think that alla colored folks
Are just second class fools
Mr. backlash, Im gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
When I try to find a job
To earn a little cash
All you got to offer
Is your mean old white backlash
But the world is big
Big and bright and round
And its full of folks like me
Who are black, yellow, beige and brown
Mr. backlash, Im gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
Mr. backlash, mr. backlash
Just what do you think I got to lose
Im gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
Youre the one will have the blues

The Blues
Hes gonna tell you bout his dear old mother
Burned up in a factory in springfield, mass.
Hes gonna tell you bout his baby brother
Hustlin down the city streets
And selling his ass for a dollar bag
Hes gonna tell you bout his uncle neddy
Locked up in a prison out in oregon
Hes gonna tell you bout his best friend eddie
Killed in a bar fight with a pair of marines
And a sailor
Oh
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes got the blues
You can hear it in his music
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes got the blues
You can hear it, you can hear it
When I was nine years old
My daddy ran away
With a woman he met on a train, oh
His little boy
Ran to the room
Where his piano
Lay in wait for him
He played and he played
He played and he played
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes got the blues
You can hear it, you can hear it
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes got the blues
A year ago, I met a girl
I thought wed hit a massive groove
But she dumped me
And all wed hit were the blues
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes got the blues
You can hear it in his music
Hes got the blues, this boy
Hes really got the blues

The Bourgeois Blues

And everywhere we went people turned us down
Lord, in a (C7) bourgeois town
It's a (G) bourgeois town
I got the (D7) bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all a- (G) round
Home of the brave, land of the free
I don't wanna be mistreated by no bourgeoisie
Lord, in a bourgeois town
Uhm, the bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
Well, me and my wife we were standing upstairs
We heard the white man say ?I don't want no niggers up there?
Lord, in a bourgeois town
Uhm, bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
Well, them white folks in Washington they know how
To call a colored man a nigger just to see him bow
Lord, it's a bourgeois town
Uhm, the bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
I tell all the colored folks to listen to me
Don't try to find you no home in Washington, DC
?Cause it's a bourgeois town

Travelin Prayer
Hey lord, take a look on around tonight
And find out where my babys gonna be
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
For he is far away from me
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
Make sure that hes gonna be alright
Things gonna be alright with me
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
And make sure all his dreams are sweet
Send down that ya got him on the road
But youll make it softer for his feet
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
Make sure that hes gonna be alright
til hes home and here with me
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
For he is sleeping under the sky
Hey lord, make sure the ground hes sleepin on
Is always warm and dry
Ooo, dont give him too much pain
And keep him away from planes
Cause my baby hates to fly
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
For it gets rough along the way
And if it all sounds strange
Just because I dont know how to pray
Ooo, wont you give him peace of mind
And if you ever find the time
Tell him I miss him everyday
Hey lord, take a look on around tonight
And find out where hes gonna be
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
For he is far away from me
Hey lord, would ya look out for him tonight
Make sure that hes gonna be alright
til hes home and here with me
Here with me

Credit Crunch Blues
Well i woke up this morning
I swear the sun just wouldn't shine
When the day took to dawning
My woman laid it on the line
'Ain't buying you no more whiskey'
And you ain't buying no more time.
I got the credit crunch blues
I'm gonna blow the bank away
I got the credit crunch blues
I'm gonna say my piece today
I gave you all my money
You gone and turned your head away.
Well I'm hiding from the rent man
There ain't a bill that i can pay
I'll be living in a tent man
I hardly eat from day to day
Some pig give me the swine flu honey
The 'doc' he said 'just stay away'.
I got the credit crunch blues
The man he say he got no work
I got the credit crunch blues
A weaker man would steal or shirk
But i just pray to Jesus
'Lord send it down for one more jerk'
Yeah i got the credit crunch blues
I'm gonna blow that bank away
I got the credit crunch blues
I'm gonna use my 'piece' today
You city boys took my money
Now sure as hell you're gonna pay!
-Oh yeah.

Babys Gone Blues
(pat bunch, pam rose, mary ann kennedy)
I feel the blues coming on
Cause I feel you being gone
Its something I wish I could lose
Babys gone blues
There aint no sunshine in sight
Cause youre gonna leave me tonight
My heart is sure feeling bruised
Babys gone blues
Chorus:
Oh - love has gone wrong
Its so hard on my heart going from good into gone
There aint no easy way back into nights before you
Babys gone blues
Babys gone blues
Its like a razor on me
Knowing you want to be free
Im standing here feeling used
Babys gone blues
There aint no dreams coming true
I wont recover from you
There aint no heartache like you
Babys gone blues

Singin' The Blues
I've been working so hard,
Just came home from my job.
Looked down in my wallet,
Good God, I've been robbed.
Now where can my money be,
All my hard-earned pay?
What am I going to do now?
I got my bills to pay.
You got me singin' the blues,
And I'm paying all my dues.
You got me singin' the blues,
Ain't got nothing to lose.
I got to tell you I got the blues down in my pockets.
People, what did I say?
Bills are gonna rob me tomorrow,
Why I need my ten dollars today.

Ain't no way to get even
Because, you know what I mean,
Every time I make me some money
Somebody's going to take it from me.
