I’M A BLUESMAN
I’m a bluesman so don’t get in my way
I’m a bluesman baby and I’m here to stay
Don’t say nothin’ just step right back
‘Cause I’m a bluesman straight from the tracks
And if you don’t believe a single word I say
Check out this guitar ‘cause I’m ready to play

I’ve been around the world seen people come and go
And there’s one thing they all need to know
You can slice you can dice it any way that you can
Just tell the rest that you don’t give a damn
And if you’re feelin’ wrong about the life you choose
That’s right son now you ain’t got the blues

I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman gonna stay this way till I die
Bluesman

I’ve been playing the blues around these years
Making money and women and hearing the cheers
So think about that for just one day
And you’ll get the itch to wanna play
Here’s a few words and I don’t mean to boast
But bluesman do it all and I done the most
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman
I’m a bluesman

I’m a bluesman baby gonna stay this way till I die

CHEATIN’ BLUES
I used to take you out
I used to treat you fine
You used to make sweet love like everyday was Valentine’s
We had a good thing going
Until I found out the truth
Yeah you blinded me with lies with your low-down cheatin’ blues

I used to hold your hand
I used to kiss you right
I used to take you home I’m rock you all night
I can’t believe
All the sweet love I wasted on you (wasted on you)
You blinded me with lies with your low-down cheatin’ blues

You told me you were working late
You were working all right
Prowling all over town
Like a stray cat in the night
I should have seen it coming
But now I know the truth
You blinded me with lies with your low-down cheatin’ blues

You told me you were working late
You were working all right
Prowling all over town
Like a stray cat in the night
I should have seen it coming
But now I know the truth
You blinded me with lies with your low-down cheatin’ blues

You say you wanna come back
It was all a mistake
You can’t shed your skin honey a snake is still a snake
What goes around
Is going to come right back to you
Someday you’ll be all alone with nothing but the low-down cheatin’ blues
Yeah I’ll leave you all alone with nothing but the low-down cheatin’ blues
Now wish it feel to be stuck with your low-down cheatin’ blues

I SMELL SMOKE
I smell smoke
You must be burning me behind my back
I smell smoke
You must be burning me behind my back
I can't see the fire,
but I feel the flame
I found a matchbook
with another man's name, oh yeah!
Just before you spoke
I smell smoke

What can a man do?
When good love turns to bad
What can a man do?
When he's lost everything he’s ever had
I can't feel the heat,
but I see it in your eyes
When we talk it over
all I get is lies, oh yeah!
Baby it's no joke
I smell smoke

It's a heavy price
that I have to pay
working for you
every night and day
Deep in the night
when I turn to you
I feel my worst fears
have come true

I smell smoke
when you think you're alone
and nobody is looking me
I smell smoke
in the middle of the night
and I know nobody is cooking
You can play you down
hide it with perfume
I smell something burning
when you walk into the room, oh yeah!
Baby it's no joke
I smell smoke

Oh yeah!
Baby it's no joke
I smell smoke

I smell smoke
I smell smoke
I smell smoke

LONE WOLF
I'm a lone wolf and I howl from town to town
I'm a lone wolf and I howl from town to town
I'm gonna huff and I'll puff until I blow your little house down
(Yes I will!)

I'm a lone wolf, don't do no running with the pack
I'm a lone wolf, don't do no running with the pack
I'm a big bad wolf, I'll pull the wool right off your back
Yeah!

When the moon comes up, I'll come a snifin' around your door
When the moon comes up, I'll come a snifin' around your door
I'll howl all night, leavin' you beggin' for more, more, more!

Yeah!

I'm a lone wolf and I howl from town to town
I'm a lone wolf and I howl from town to town
I'm gonna huff and a-puff until I blow your little house down.

I'm a lone wolf!
I'm a lone wolf!
I'm a lone wolf!
I'm a lone wolf!
I'm gonna huff and I'll puff until I blow your little house down
Oww!

SO MUCH LOVE
My mama told me when I was just a child
Said “You got what it takes to drive the little girls wild
You got whay it takes to make ‘em screan, jump and holler”
You can’t buy that for a million dollars
I got so much love, I got so much love,
I got so much love I got spread it all over this world

I got enough love to make the mountains shake
The ocean’s boilng and the South Pole bake
I got enough love to make a grey sky blue
And I still got plenty left for you
I got so much love, I got so much love,
I got so much love, I’m gonna spread it all over this world

Europe, America, North and South
The whole round world is what I’m talkin’ about
Asia, Africa, Australia too
And I still got plenty left for you, you, and you, and you
I got so much love, I got so much love,
I got so much love I got spread it all over this world

And I still got plenty left for you, you, and you, and you
I got so much love, I got so much love,
I got so much love I got spread it all over this world

THE MONKEY SONG
Now don’t go thinkin’ that I’m crazy
And don’t go thinkin’ that I’m sick
But I need a little favor from you
I want you to shave that monkey slick
I won’t tell nobody
I won’t say nothin’ mean
You can have anything you want
But you gotta shave that monkey clean

Now you see I’ve tried everything
To keep that monkey happy
But you’re gone and taken advantage of me
You’ve gone and let that monkey get nappy
I won’t tell nobody
I won’t say nothin’ mean
You can have anything you want
You’ve got to shave that monkey clean

You see, you’ve gotta shave that monkey
I want to see that monkey shine
Put a razor to that rascal
‘Cause I got slick money on my mind
I won’t tell nobody
I won’t say nothin’ mean
You can have anything you want
If you just shave that monkey clean

Shave that rascal

Now if you don’t straighten out that rascal
I’m goin’ right out that door
Gonna get me a brand new monkey
Goin’ down to the monkey store
I won’t tell nobody
And I won’t say nothin’ mean
But you can have anything you want
But you gotta shave that monkey clean

You know I’ve got and idea baby
Something I think you’ll really dig
When you get tired of that bald monkey
I’m gonna get that monkey a wig
I won’t tell nobody
I won’t say nothin’ mean
You can have anything you want
You gotta shave that monkey clean

Do a favor for me
I want to see that monkey shine
Little girl you know
‘Cause that monkey’s all mine
Put a razor to that rascal
Make that monkey slick
You know I’m got that monkey
Make it slick enough to lick

Raise that monkey, raise it real high
‘Cause when I see that monkey
I want to be lookin’ in his eye
You better shave that thing
Put a razor to the rascal

SHAKE DOWN
It was a long time ago back in ‘63
In a town full of lust and misery
Turn around
Hit the ground
Shake down, don’t want no shake down, no, no, no

He cried framed from the start never stood no chance
They could see his quilt from just one glance
Turn aroun
Hit the ground
Shake down, don’t want no shake down
Can’t take no shake down
Please no more shake down, no, no, no

Would he do it again he asks himself avery day
To kill for romance is the price he’ll pay
Turn around
Hit the ground
Don’t want no shake down
Can’t take no shake down
Don’t want no shake down
Please no more shake down, it’s the price to pay

Shake down, don’t want no shake down
Can’t take no shake down
Oh Lord shake down
It’s price he’ll pay

SWEET LITTLE BABY
I got a sweet little baby
She do anything in the world for me
She’s a sweet little baby
And she do anything in the world for me
She’s a fine lookin’ woman
And she will not leave me be

The woman cooked my breakfast
and she bring it to my bed
The woman cooked my breakfast
and she bring it to my bed
She eased my worried mind
and she rubs my achin’ head

So if you got a sweet woman
you better love and treat her right
If you got a sweet woman
you better love and treat her right
You better love her all day
and keep her happy every night

PACK YOUR BAGS
Pack your bags, baby
Don’t want you here no more
Pack your bags, baby
Don’t want you here no more
When I’m come home this evening
You best be out the door

Don’t give me no lies
Don’t want you here no more
Don’t give your lies, baby
I heard ‘em all before
If you’re still here this evening
You know there’s gonna be a war

You’re an evil woman, baby
And you know that, that’s a fact
The only way I’ll see you
Is leavin’ out the back
Pack your bags, baby
Don’t want you here no more
When I’m come home this evening
You best be out my door

Your cheatin’ ways
Have led us to this day
Your cheatin’ ways, baby
Have let us being to pay
To give your love to another man
Is just too much for me to stand

So pack your bags
Don’t want you here no more
Pack your bags, baby
Don’t want you here no more
When I’m come home this evening
You best be out my door

LAST NIGHT
Last night
You kept coming into my dreams
Last night
You were making up all your schemes
But it’s the last night
I’ll be thinking of you

I’m gonna be movin’ on
Movin’ on down the line
I’m gonna be movin’ on
Movin’ on down the line
‘Cause it’s the last night
You played your last game with my mind

Today I saw your mother
Down in Birmingham
She treated me just like I ain’t your man
After last night
I gotta keep movin’ on
It wasn’t the dream that bothered me
Baby but what happened later on

Everybody told me
You were foolin’ around
You were with my best friend
Meant I left town
Last night
Baby I had my doubts
But last night
Baby I found you out

I’m gonna be movin’ on
Movin’ on down the line
I’m gonna be movin’ on
Movin’ on down the line
‘Cause it’s the last night
You played your last game with my mind

THAT WOULDN’T SATISFY
I’m in love with you baby
But you love somebody else
I’m in love with you baby
But you love somebody else
May God bless you, have fun for yourself

Are you happy pretty baby?
I heard you was doin’ fine
Are you happy pretty baby?
I heard you was doin’ fine
Just to think baby I thought you would be mine

Sometimes I think baby
Of committing suicide
Sometimes I think baby
Of committing suicide
Then again baby that wouldn’t satisfy

SUGAR COATED LOVE
Well, you oughta see my baby
Man, that girl’s so fine
If love me every mornin’ and every night
And she’s always on my mind
She got sugar coated love
Yes, sugar coated love
She’s a real gone baby and I don’t mean maybe she’s fine

I don’t have to worry about money
I don’t have to worry about clothes
I don’t have to worry about anything
She’s my baby and goodness knows
She got sugar coated love
Yes, sugar coated love
She’s a real gone baby and I don’t mean maybe she’s fine

You can take your pick of the others
Take anyone you may choose
I’m a-holdin’ on to this baby of mine
‘Cause she’s got what I can use
She gor sugar coated love
Yes, sugar coated love
She’s a real gone baby and I don’t mean maybe she’s fine

If you wanna know what sugar coated love is
It’s the best love that they got
It’s the kind of love make the old feel young
And makes the North Pole hot
She gor sugar coated love
Yes, sugar coated love
She’s a real gone baby and I don’t mean maybe she’s fine

LET’S START ALL OVER AGAIN
I drown in a river
Of my own tears
Chased shots of drepression
With cases of beer
It’s late in the game
But I think we can win
Oh baby
Let’s start over again

This coud be heaven
Or this could be hell
I’m doubling down
Only time will tell
This could bring pleasure
This could bring pain
Oh yeah baby
Let’s start over again

I’m coming back
It’s been a lonely road
At times to do it’s hard
But I carried the load
Come back to me
Let’s begin
Oh yeah baby
Let’s start over again

I drown in a river
Of my own tears
Chased shots of drepression
With cases of beer
It’s late in the game
But I think we can win
Oh yeah baby
Let’s start over again
Oh yeah baby
Let’s start over again
Yeah baby
Let’s start over again

NOTHING LEFT
Woke up inside myself this morning,
uncertainty all around
Got straight and turned on to some happiness,
then I lay back down,
all there was around
Nothing left but ashes,
and the smell

Went down to the corner drug store,
the pain was more than I could bare
They told me that I was illegal,
I told them I don't care,
let them stand and stare
Nothin' left but old bones,
and the smell

I know I can't go on,
I just can't stand the pain,
can't stand the pain,
I know I just can't stand,
guess I'll go insane,
go insane

Guess I was born to be mistreated,
contentment seems too hard to find
Searchin' for some understandin',
then I lost my mind,
left it far behind
Nothing left but memories,
and the smell

NO TIME TO LIVE
As time begins to burn it's self upon me
And the days are growing very short
People try their hardest to reject me
But in a way their conscience won't be torn
Something's happen to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting' washed away yeah
Well I give it everything that is mine to give
Then I'll turn around to find that there is no time to live

So often I see the big wheel of fortune
Spinning for the man who holds the ace
There's many that'll change their places for me
But come to find I've never seen such lonely days
Something's happen to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting' washed away yeah
Well I give it everything that is mine to give
Then I'll turn around to find that there is no time to live

ON THE LIMB
Down on the limb
Down on the limb
I didn't want to go this far
My branch is gettin' thin

(Dont you know that I'm)

Out on a limb
I'm scared on the limb
I really hope it's not too late
Somehow there's got to be a way back and

I'm near the end
Without a friend
I'm on a limb

Though was the coolest thing
The brightest place in town
I could turn your head around
It used to be so easy
All the games were so much fun
I hate to bring you down
But things keep changing all the time
It used to be so easy

(Listen for it but it's gettin' harder to remember all the time).

Out on a limb
Out on a limb
This isn't what I had in mind
The ice is gettin' thin

(Dont you know that I'm)

Out on a limb
I'm scared on the limb
I really hope it's not too late
Somehow there's got to be a way back and

I'm near the end
Without a friend
I'm on a limb

Try to keep above it all
Outside lookin' in
Carefull are you find yourself
Seekin' past the bottom
My hole life's descent passed
Right before my eyes
Someone loosen up the neurals
I'm seekin' past the bottom

(Harder all th time)

Out on a limb
Out on a limb
Just might be my time has come
It looks like they might win

(Dont you know that I'm)

Out on a limb
I'm scared on the limb
I really hope it's not too late
Somehow there's got to be a way back and

I'm near the end
Without a friend
I'm on a limb

I'm on a limb

(Someone get me down)
(Take me down)

OUT OF SIGHT
You got your high-heeled sneakers on
And your slip-in mules
Got your high-heeled sneakers on
And your slip-in mules
You're more than all right now
I know you're out of sight

You got a shapely figure, mama
That's keep'n' me uptight
Got a shapely figure, mama,
You know it keep me uptight
You're my heart's delight just about right now
I believe you're out of sight

Hey! The wee little things you do
The way you kiss me, too
Lord, the wee little things you do
And I know the way you kiss me, too
Oh you're too much
I know you're out of sight

You... got a sweet disposition
Lord, you know you're always right
You got a sweet disposition, yeah
I know you're always right
You know just where it's at mother
You know you're out of sight
Hey!

You're too much
You're the end
So hip, baby
I know you know just where it's at
There ain't no doubt now you're out of sight
Woohoo!
Too much!
You're beautiful, mama

ROCK AND ROLL HOOCHIE KOO

There was a group called The Jokers, they were layin' it down
Don'tcha know I'm never gonna lose that funky sound

Hey, rock and roll, Hoochie Koo

Rock and roll, Hoochie Koo

When my ears started ringin' like a fire alarm

Rock and roll, Hoochie Koo

Rock and roll, Hoochie Koo
Truck on out and spread the news

Rock and roll, Hoochie Koo

SOUND THE BELL
I went out and got married
Thought I'd live a happy life
But before I could settle down
Another man had stole my wife
Well, sound the bell, yes it feels so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had, no!

If you see my woman, won't you tell her for me
That you left me crying, and my heart's in misery
Well, sound the bell, well I feel so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had
Noooo!

You might think I'm crazy, but I'll never love again
I'm going back home to my mama, 'cause she's my only friend
Sound the bell, Lord, I feel so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had, no
Nobody knows, the troubles I had,
Nobody knows the troubles I had.

But there's one thing that worries my mind
I said you always whisperin' some other guys name
Tell me 'bout the guy you left behind

I wanna know, I wanna know I just, gotta know
Woah yeah, I wanna know, please tell me child

THE SKY IS CRYING
The sky is crying
Look at the tears roll down the street
The sky is crying
Look at the tears roll down the street
I'm waiting looking for my baby
And I wonder where can she be

I saw my baby one morning
And she was walkin’ on down the street
I saw my baby one morning
And she was walkin’ on down the street
Baby feel so good
Let my poor heart skip a beat

I’ve got a bad feelin’
My baby don’t love me no more
I’ve got a bad feelin’
My baby, my baby don’t love me no more
Know the sky is crying
The tears rollin’ out my door

THE WORLD TURNS ALL AROUND HER
If you think she's everything you could want
And if you think she's everything that could be
Well I still think my world turns all around her
And I still wish that she belonged to me

I don't know how I ever could have thought that
I'd let her go and still be just the same
Well I found out my world turns all around her
And everywhere I go I hear her name

Somewhere along the way I don't know why
I thought that I would want to let her go
But now whenever I see her with you, I
Realize how much I didn't know

So if you tell her everything she could want
And if you tell her everything that could be
You'll find out your world will turn around her

You'll feel the same if you should set her free

TRIBUTE TO MUDDY
Woah, Lord I wish, Lord I wonder what happens
Answer's the nickel, a deep blue sea
I tore all the good looking women somewhere
Sure enough baby that's me, 'cause it's gonna happen

Lord my mother, well so as my father
About three months long before I was born
Said I got a boy child coming
Sure enough it gonna be a rolling stone
Lord I'm gonna get a rolling stone man

Lord I'm broke
Lord I'm broke
Now I reckon I better do
Lord if I clean up little girls
Then I go home with you
Yeah man I'm gonna walk

Woah, Lord it's true, two things running
Lord I believe you're the worst child in my way
We're gonna watch them run at midnight
But the one that's running just gonna lie dead

Lord she's lone yeah and she's tall
Lord she weeps like a banshee
Lord the folks they say she's no good
But she's all right with me, 'cause I'll be right there

Woah, ho, ho
Somebody help me, help me, I always lose
Lord see if the girl don't love the man you know
That's when I do the voodoos
Ah, don't make you hurt honey

TRICK BAG
12:00 o' clock at night, you walk out the door
You told me baby, you was going to the drug-store
Well, in my mind, I knew you was lying
The drug-store closed at a quarter to nine
I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

When I get home, start an argument
Just to keep you from asking where my voodoo went
Walk in the front door, I hear the back door slam
I peek out of my window, somebody's taking it on the lam
Well I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

We had a fight, then you'd get mad
Got on the telephone, you call your mom and dad.
They come a-running down with a bass in their hands
"Don't you hit her no more, you understand?"
I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

You did me wrong but I know I'm right
It wasn't me baby that started the fight
"She's my daughter and I'm her pa,
And you ain't nothing but a son-in-law"
But I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

VOODOO TWIST
There's a brand-new dance that's a-going 'round
The Voodoo Twist is in your town
Yes sweet sixteen, Lord she's never been kissed
Yes she's out there doin' the voodoo twist
Come on baby baby you're so fine
Come on baby baby one more time
You got your spell on me baby

New York City and Chicago too
Short Fat Dan and Mary Lou
Dancin' all dance there late at night
Yeah they're voodoo twistin' with all their might
Come on baby baby one more time
Come on baby baby you're so fine
You got your spell on me baby

I need you baby baby by my side
Come on baby now be my guide
Tell me how to do it baby, show me how it's done
Voodoo twistin' let's have some fun
Got your voodoo workin'!
Got your voodoo workin'!
Got your voodoo workin'!
Got your voodoo workin'!
Got your voodoo workin', baby got your spell on me

I tell you yeah yeah!
I tell you yeah yeah!
I tell you yeah yeah!
I tell you yeah yeah!
Got your voodoo workin', baby got your spell on me

I said baby!
Baby!
Baby!...

HELP ME
You gotta help me darling, I can't make it all by myself
You gotta help me baby, I can't do it by myself
If you don't help me little girl, I gotta use somebody else

You might have to curse, you have to swear,
You might have to disturb, you might have to rock and roll
But you gotta help me darling I can't make it all by myself,
If you don't help me little girl, I gotta find somebody else

You might have to curse, you have to swear,
You might have to disturb, you might have to rock and roll
But you gotta help me darling I can't make it all by myself,
If you don't help me little girl, I gotta find somebody else

Hey baby put your morning gown,
woah baby put on your morning gown
I'm so sleepy little girl but I feel like lying down

HOW DO YOU LIVE A LIE
How do you live a lie?
How do you smile instead of cry?
How do you say that you don't love her
That you don't care, you just can't care?

How do you say to your friends
"My love was wrong, it had to end"?
How do you sleep at night
When you know that it's not right?

I tried (yes I tried) to tell my heart (to tell my heart)
That I (oh yes that I) didn't care (didn't care)
I tried (oh yes I tried) to tell my heart (to tell my heart)
But it won't believe my tears, my tears

How do you live a lie?
How do you smile instead of cry?
How do you say that you don't love her...
That you don't care (that you don't care)

I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WANT TO LEAVE
I can't believe you wanna leave
Although you know that it'd hurt me so
Down on my bending knees
I cried and beg you not to go

Well think of all the fun we had
Think of all the dreams we shared
Now you say you're gonna leave me
Don't you know it would drive me mad

My heart
My love
My life in your hands
Now you say
You’re gonna leave me
You're gonna leave me for another man

Think of all the fun we had
Think of all the dreams we shared
Now you say you're gonna leave me
Don't you know it would drive me mad

My love
My heart
My life in your hands
Now you say
You're gonna leave me
You're gonna leave me for another man

Think of all the fun we had
Think of all the dreams we shared
Now you say you're gonna leave me
Don't you know it would drive me mad

I GOT LOVE IF YOU WANT IT
I got love if you want it baby
I got love if you want it, baby
I got love if you want it
I got love if you want it
I got love if you want it
You just wait a little while

Quit teasing me baby
Quit teasing me baby
With your sly round frame
With your sly round frame
Let me love you, love you baby
I'll be your loving man
I'll be your loving man

Try my next door baby
Try my next door baby
If you can do things right
If you can do things right
Don't worry nobody
Then it's already time
Then it's already time

I love you little woman
I love you little woman
Wanna let it do myself
Wanna let it do myself
That you mistreat me baby
Love from someone else
Love from someone else

I love you little woman
I love you little woman
With my head hung down
With my head hung down
I know you'll be gone darling
Talk all over town
Talk all over town

I HAD TO CRY
Some people just can't seem to cry
When their darling says good bye
But you take me now, I just can't help it
I had to cry

Some people have a cold cold heart
Makes no difference if they part
But you take me now, since you left me
I had to cry

Why can't I be like some people, the kind that don't feel any pain?
Why can't I be like the kind that don't mind and start all over again?

Some people just find someone new
Don't spend their time just feeling blue
But you take me now, since you left me
I had to cry

IT AIN’T YOUR BUSINESS
You was wonderin' what was happenin' the other night
When I pulled down the shades and I turned off the light
But it ain't your business
No, it ain't your business
No, it ain't your business
Better leave my affairs alone

Well let me cook my own dinner and I wash my own clothes
I give my baby all my money, still she turns up her nose
But it ain't your business
Still, it ain't your business
No, it ain't your business
Better leave my affairs alone
Yes, yes

When I leave my house, just to walk the street
You know she's standin' in the door and she's with other people
But it ain't your business
Still, it ain't your business
No, it ain't your business
Better leave my affairs alone
Whoah, look out!

Oh you was wonderin' what was happenin' the other night
When I pulled down the shades and I turned off the light
But it ain't your business
No, it ain't your business
Yeah it ain't your business
Better leave my affairs alone
Yes, yes!

Yeah I cook my own dinner and I wash my own clothes
I give my baby all my money, still she turns up her nose
But it ain't your business
Oh it ain't your business
Well, it ain't your business
Better leave my affairs alone
Yeah, leave my affairs alone!

When I leave my house, just to walk the streets
You know she's standin' in the door and she's with other people
But it ain't your business
Oh it ain't your business
Ain't your business
Leave my affairs alone
Whoah, gotta leave my affairs alone, baby!

IT’S ALL OVER NOW
Well, baby used to stay out, all night long
She made me cry and she did me wrong
She had my nose open, that's no lie
The table's have turned, now it's her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now

Well, she used to run around with every man in town
She spent all my money trying to play that high class game
She put me down, it was a pity how I cried
The table's have turned, now it's her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now

I used to wake up in the morning, get my breakfast in bed
Whenever I got worried, she would rub my aching head
But now she's here and there, with every man in town
Still trying to take me for that same old clown
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now

Well, baby used to stay out, all night long
She made me cry and she did me wrong
She had my nose open, that's no lie
The table's have turned, now it's her turn to cry

Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now

IT’S MY OWN FAULT – LIVE
t's my own fault, babe
Treat me the way you wanna do
My fault, baby
Treat me the way you wanna do
When I was loving you, woman
All the time you know I wouldn't be true

Once you told me that you love me
You changed your mind
Once you told me that you love me
You changed your mind
Gonna send you back to your mother
You are no good

You used to make an all fancy woman
Bring it all home to me
I go out every night, baby, look at me
Woman, let us be
My fault, baby
Treat me the way you wanna do
When I was loving you, woman
All the time you know I wouldn't be true

Upon my knees, grabbing my babe
But I'll try to do better, better
You know I'm a trying the best I can
My fault, baby
Oh, treat me the way you wanna do
When I was loving you, woman
All the time, I was loving

My fault, baby
Treat me the way you wanna do
My fault, baby
Treat me the way you wanna do
When I was loving you, woman
Oh yeah, oh yeah
All the time, all the time
Oh, oh, oh, oh, all the time now

You all know I
You all know I
You all know I do want you
Yeah, hey, hey now

JUMPIN’ JACK FLASH
I was born in a crossfire hurricane
In a house, mama, in the fallin rain
Well it's all right now, in fact it's a gas
It's all right, jumpin jack flash is a gas gas gas

I was raised by a toothless bearded haag
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
Well it's all right, in fact it's a gas
It's all right now, jumpin jack flash is a gas gas gas

I was drowned, washed up and left for dead
I looked down at my feet and I saw they bled
I looked down at the cross from across my bed
I was crowned with a spike right through my head
Well it's all right, in fact it's a gas
It's all right now, jumpin jack flash is a gas gas gas

KIND HEARTED WOMAN
I got a kind hearted woman, she'd do anything in this world for me
I got a kind hearted woman, she'd do anything in this world for me
But the evil-hearted women, you know they just won't let me be

If you got a good friend, let her stay right by your side
If you got a good friend, let her stay right by your side
In all your bad times, love and treat her right

Woke up this mornin' by a knockin' at my door
You know I woke up this mornin', somebody knockin' at my front door
I said "hello Satan, I believe it's time to go"

Me and the Devil go a-walkin' side by side
I said me and the Devil just go a-walkin' side by side
Lord I ain't gonna be back woman 'till I'm get satisfied

I got a kind hearted woman, she'd do anything in this world for me
I got a kind hearted woman, she'd do anything in this world for me
But all the evil-hearted women, Lord they just won't let me be

When I die, bury me by the highway side
When I die, woo Lord, bury me by the highway side
So my old evil spirit can catch a Greyhound bus and ride

KISS TOMORROW GOODBYE
Tomorrow was our wedding day
But with my own two eyes
I saw you kissing my best friend
But you can kiss tomorrow goodbye

Although you really hurt me
Although you made me cry
My love for you still lingers on
But you can kiss tomorrow goodbye, whoah

Of all the loves I ever, ever had
You know, I loved you the most
How could you wreck my life and ruin my plans
With our, our wedding day so close

My eyes still burn from crying
But when these teardrops dry
I'm gonna find myself another girl
Baby you can kiss, kiss tomorrow goodbye
Yeah!

Of all the loves I ever, ever had
You know, I loved you the most
Baby how could you wreck my life and ruin my plans
With our, our, our wedding day so close

My eyes still burn from crying
But when my teardrops dry
I'm gonna find myself another girl
Baby you can kiss, kiss tomorrow goodbye
Baby you can kiss, oh you can kiss tomorrow goodbye
Kiss tomorrow, kiss tomorrow... goodbye

straight into the night
day is done
with other sun to rise

Let the music play

LIVIN’ IN THE BLUES
Livin' in the blues catchin' up on all my dues
All the games that I had played man I finally got them paid
Makin' out is such a drag livin' round just ain't my bag
But stayin alone is the thing to do and I, when you're livin' in the blues yeah

Cigarettes by the case blended gently with the taste
Once helped to pass my time made my pillow feel so kind
But as my end draws slowly closer I feel my life was already over
It's so easy to lose when you're livin' in the blues yeah

Livin' in the blues catchin' up on all my dues

I feel like rocking, won't you jump with me
I got a 20 dollar bill, a dime in change
The bad mad dog baby is my name
Mad dog, mad dog coming down the way

Her big flat feet keep her on this world
Two tons of tissue, something to spare
The bad mad dog take it everywhere
Mad dog, mad dog coming down the way

I got a cut-off tie and some beat-up shoes
Holes in my pocket trying to lose this blues
Little skinny Minnie, she's in there too
She feels like jumping like the mad dog do
Mad dog, mad dog coming down the way
Owww, owww, owww!

Well now I'm walls of thunder, rods of lighting you see
And no-one on Earth is gonna mess with me
A fancy on my feet doing any dance I can

Owww, owww, mad dog
Mad dog mad dog, mad dog coming down the way

MEAN TOWN BLUES
Lord my mother she done told me and my father done told me
My father told me too,
Yeah my mother she done told me
And my father done told me, my father told me too,
It's a mean old town to live in by yourself

Yeah, work for a dollar or several thousand, could not save a dime
You know I worked for a dollar, or several thousand, man couldn't save a dime
Ain't nobody worried and there isn't nobody's crying

Yeah, I got my hands outside to get a hold on, try to get some of my cash
Lord I try to get my hands outside to get a hold on, try to get some of my cash
It's those great big smiles to keep us out of that trash

So I packed up my suitcase and I move on down, hit that lonesome road
You know I packed up my suitcase and I hit that lonesome, move on down
I'm still crying to make it when the day was done

MURDERING BLUES
Well I went down to Eli's
To get my pistol outta pawn
When I got back home
My woman had done gone
Yes I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop cheatin' and lyin'
(I'm gonna put a hurtin' on this woman)
Well I'd rather be in the penitentiary
Than to be worried out of my mind

Well I came home last night, it was about four o'clock
The little room-side joint in the rear had just begun to rock
I ease upside so I could get a better view
I see my woman, she was doin' the monkey too!
I said yes, I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop her cheatin' and lyin'
(Yeah I'm gonna hurt her this mornin')
I'd rather go to the penitentiary
Than to be worried outta my mind

Yeah, I don't mind goin', ya know!

Caught cheatin' and lyin'!

I'm gonna hurt her this mornin'
Look out woman!

I give her all of my money
Just tryin' to be nice and kind
She spent it all on her whiskey
Oh yes, and beer and wine
I said yes, I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop cheatin' and lyin'
(Oh I'm gonna put a hurtin' on that woman!)
I'd rather go to the penitentiary
Than to be worried outta my mind

MY TIME AFTER AWHILE
It's your time now baby
Lords but I got a feeling it's gonna be my time after awhile
Oh it's your time now baby
But I have a feeling it's gonna be my time after awhile
Well, you know if things don't change now, baby
I'm gonna move on down the line (yes I am!)

You know I looked out my window
What in the world d'you think I seen?
My baby with another man
Sittin' in a long black limosine
It's your time, it's your time now woman
But I have a feeling it's gonna be my time after awhile
Whoah, if things don't change, if things don't change now baby
I'm gonna move on down the line

She stayed out all last night
You know the girl she just walked in
The woman she is gettin' ready
She's going, she's going to walk right back out again
I said "wait a minute baby just before you go"
The woman didn't even look at me
She just walked on out the door

Oh I said it's your time, it's your time now baby
But I got a feeling it's gonna be my time after awhile
Whoah, if things don't change, if things don't change now baby
Lord I'm gonna move on down the line
Oh I'm gonna move on down the line!

I looked out my window
What do you think I seen?
My baby with another man
Sittin' in a long black limousine
It's your time, it's your time now baby
Whoah, I got a feeling it's gonna be my time, gonna be my time after awhile
If things don't change woman
I'm gonna move on down the line

I just wanna talk to my baby
There's one thing I wanna say
"Go ahead on and mistreat me
But every dog gonna have his day"
Whoa, wait a minute baby
I just wanna talk to you baby
I just wanna talk to you baby
I don't believe you is listening to what I gotta say woman
Lord, you're going out every night baby
You stepped out last night, just the night before
I wanna ask you one question baby
Yeah, you're gonna listen to what I say before you go
I just wanna talk to you baby...

38-32-20 BLUES
Send for my baby, man and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none

If she gets unruly, thinks she don't want me
And if she gets unruly and thinks she don't want me
Take my 32-20 and cut her half in two

Aww, baby, where you stayed last night
Aww, baby, where you stayed last night
Come home this mornin' and your clothes ain't fittin' you right

Send for my baby, man and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man the girls don't come
All the Hot Springs water sure can't help her none

She got a .38 special, it do very well
She got a .38 special, child, it do very well
A 32-20, yes it burns in hell

Aww, I just can't take my rest
Aww, just can't take my rest
With this 32-20 laying up and down my breast

Come here baby, sit down on my knee
Come here baby and sit down on my knee
I got somethin' to tell ya child, keep on worryin' me

She got a 32-20, Lord it's much alright
She got a .38 special, I believe it ain't alright
I got my 32-20, gonna make everything tonight

AIN’T THAT A KINDNESS
It had rained for three days straight
But the sun was beginning to shine
Two riders were approachin'
But they were no friends of mine.

Called out for Hanna
And I kept here close to my side
Whistled for old Thunder
And my horse he was ready to ride

I give you everything I had babe
Ain't that kindness
I give you the good with the bad babe
Ain't that kindness
Don't cha know I give you my love when say babe
Ain't that kindness
Hmmm ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun
Ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun

Took to the road six night and days
Only then did we think it was safe
I heard the sound of two men approachin'
But they did not hesitate
Hanna she was cryin'
But she wouldn't let go of my leg
Thunder he was tired
Been a thinkin' of a better day

I give you everything I had babe
Ain't that kindness
I give you the good with the bad babe
Ain't that kindness
I give you my love when say babe
Ain't that kindness
Hmmm ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun
Ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun

Two shots fired and two figures fell
There was blood flowin' over the ground
Two men dead in the noon day sun
And they never ever made a sound
Hanna she never forgave me
And I think I know the reason why
When I called out for thunder
The horse he up and died.

I give you everything I had babe
Ain't that kindness
I give you the good with the bad babe
Ain't that kindness
Don't cha know I give you my love when say babe
Ain't that kindness
Hmmm ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun
Ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun

Ya know a man ain't nothing without his gun

AM I HERE
Am I really here?
Are you really there?
Is this anywhere?
I don’t really care

I just love the way you feel
But I wonder if you real
Things just aren’t the way they seem
I think this is someone else’s dream
You know that I don’t really see
You know that you imagine me
Now you know you’re all alone
Without me you might have never known

Don’t you know I want to live with you?
Think of all the things that we could do
I could show you things you never knew
All our dreams must die before they’re through
And then there’s something new
I’ll get there way ahead of you

Am I really here?
Are you really there?
Is this anywhere?
I don’t really care

Am I really here?

AVOCADO GREEN
Gentlemen and ladies
Please listen to me
She's gone this time for good now
That's not where she's supposed to be

The Greyhound man he took her
To where she can't be seen
Am I gonna need her?
Is an avocado green?

Sure you say I should face it
But the wound is open wide
And it's really hard to replace it
When she's the only thing I've ever tried

Several of my two friends
Wrote to me about how
They seen ya out with bookends
How many can you take on now?

I got the police ridin'
Around and in between
Were you safely hidin'
As an avocado green?

Matter of factly speakin'
I'm suffering but please don't tell
At lunch I was caught sneakin'
To get a drink at the big blue inkwell

But tomorrow I can kick it
For my horoscope plainly reveals
I'm gonna inherit a fortune
But not to spend it on an African seal

Well baby, you're not with me
And I didn't wanna be mean
But do they call it envy

If an avocado's green?

BABY WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
You got me running
You got me hiding
You got me run hide, hide run
Anyway you want to let it roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're doin' what'cha want me
Baby what'cha want me to do

I'm goin' up
I'm goin' down
I'm goin' up, down, down, up
Anyway you want to, let it roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're doin' what'cha want me
Baby what'cha want me to do

Oh, baby
Honey, honey what's wrong with you
You don't treat me, treat me woman
Baby like you used to do

Oh, baby
Honey, honey what's wrong with you
You don't treat me, treat me woman
Baby like you used to do

You got me running
You got me hiding
You got me run hide, hide run
Anyway you want to let it roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're doin' what'cha want me

Baby what'cha want me to do

BAD LUCK AND TROUBLE
I believe that bad luck and trouble, man is all that joins us
Seems like bad luck and trouble, people that's all that joins us
When my bad luck quit me, Lord my trouble just began

I'm travelin' the highway, since I was a child
Nobody seems to want to me, nobody seems to care
Bad luck and trouble, man is all that joins us
When my bad luck quit me, man my trouble just began

Lord I'm sittin' down and thinkin', man I'm a long, long way from home
Just sittin’ down and thinkin', man I'm a long, long way from home
Thinkin’ about all my good times, Lord and the friends I once have known

Ain’t never hurt nobody, ain’t never done nobody wrong
Other people won't accept me they say man leave me alone
Sittin' down and thinkin', Lord I'm a long long way from home
Thinkin' about my good times, men and the friends I once have known

Man ain't nobody has this trouble, I gonna tell nobody else
Nobody else has this trouble, man I ain't gonna tell nobody else
My whole life I'm livin' baby, gonna make it by myself

BAD NEWS
Bad news travels like a wildfire
And good news travels slow
They call my your Wildfire
Every place I go
'Cause I'm bad news
Mmmm... every place I go, oh oh now
Oh Lord always gettin' in trouble
Leavin' little girls who hate to see me go

I've picked peaches down in Georgia
Lumberjacked up in Maine
I've been hired and jailed
In every state you can name
'Cause I'm bad news
Every place I go, oh oh now
Because I'm always gettin' into trouble
And I'm leavin' little girls who hate to see me go

Lord they tried to hang me down in Oakland
And they did in Old Frisco
But I wouldn't choke
And I broke their rope
And they had to let me go
'Cause I'm bad news
Every place I go, every place I go
You know I'm always gettin' into trouble
And I'm leavin' little girls who hate to see me go

Because I'm bad news...
Oh you better believe it...
Oh I'm bad news... I tell it like it is...

I got to tell you Lord, I'm bad news...

BLACK CAT BONE
I believes my old lady she done, drive my black cat bone
You know I made my old lady she done, drive my black cat bone
I got a funny feeling right here, something's going all wrong

She don't shoot in the morning, she walk the streets till late at night
She don't shoot in the morning, she walk the streets till late at night
Well she come home in the evening, doggone baby fight

Gonna call up the operator, right around the town
Get up this crazy world that's going on, I believe my baby she done, drive my black cat bone
Got a funny feeling right here, something's going wrong

My mama treats me like a, well fed dog at bay
You know my baby treats me like a well fed dog at bay
Yeah, I might be tired of living and I'll put six feet in the grave

I'm gonna take it up iron Memphis, to get my hands on the bone
Gonna lay around here living till I, get on the phone
Gonna make it to Memphis man, to get my hands on the bone
I'm gonna lay around here in Mississippi, 'cause or else it's gonna spoil

I believe my old lady she done, drive my black cat bone
I made my old lady she done, drive my black cat bone
I got a funny feeling right here, something's going all wrong

BROKE DOWN ENGINE
Feel like a broke down engine mama, Lord my driving wheel
Feel like a broken down engine mama, Lord my driving wheel
Got me all tied up and lonesome, you know exactly how it makes a good man feel

I've been shooting craps and gambling, mama I believe I done got broke
Been shooting craps and gambling, woman I believe I done got broke
Had a poor mean forty four, man I'm already closing so

Man I went down to my praying ground and I felt down on my knees
Went down to my praying ground, Lord I fell down on my knees
I ain't trying for no religion, won't you bring me back my good gal please

If you just send me my baby, won't have to worry and cry no more
If you just send up my baby man, Lord I won't have to worry and cry no more

Don't have to bring to my house, Lord won't you leave her up at my door

BY THE LIGHT OF THE SILVERY MOON
Place park, scene dark, silvery moon is shining through the trees;
Cast two, me, you, sound of kisses floating on the breeze.
Act one, begun. Dialogue, "Where would you like to spoon?"
My cue, with you, underneath the silvery moon.

By the light of the silvery moon,
I want to spoon, to my honey I'll croon love's tune,
Honeymoon keep a shining in June,
Your silvery beams will bring love dreams, we'll be cuddling soon,
By the silvery moon.

Act two, scene new, roses blooming all around the place;
Cast three, you, me, Preacher with a solemn looking face.
Choir sings, bell rings,Preacher: "You are wed for evermore."
Act two, all through, every night the same encore.

By the light, (By the light, By the light),
Of the silvery moon, (The silvery moon).
I want to spoon, (Want to spoon, Want to spoon)
To my honey I'll croon love's tune.

Your silvery beams will bring love dreams,
We'll be cuddling soon,
By the silvery moon.

We'll be cuddling soon,
By the silvery moon. (The silvery moon).
By the light that's silvery!

You know I'm bleedin' in my soul, gonna let my woman go

GANGSTER OF LOVE
Jesse James and Frank James

Supposed to be some bad cats

When I walk in a bar
Girls come from near and far
