Mystery is following me down that lonesome road |
|
And i don't know my way, my way back home |
|
There's someone on my shoulder and he will not share a load |
|
And i don't know my way, my way back home |
|
There's a certain something deep inside |
|
Like a rolling sea or a river wide |
|
As the orchestra starts playing |
|
Get down joe |
|
You can see his face, you can feel his smile |
|
Yeah, look down low and let the tears run wild |
|
When the orchestra starts playing |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Think about me, girl, and the things i ain't said |
|
I could not be sad, thinkin' 'bout the things that you do |
|
While the folks around me sing on |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Band is swinging, people singing |
|
Get down joe |
|
There's a place down home where people meet |
|
They clap their hands and they stamp their feet |
|
When the music starts and the band plays |
|
Get down joe |
|
They sing out loud and they sing out clear |
|
Turn your head round girl and you might just hear |
|
And if you do then start down singing |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Think about me, girl, and the things i ain't said |
|
I could not be sad, thinkin' 'bout the things that you do |
|
While the folks around me sing on |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Band is swinging, people singing |
|
Get down joe |
|
Take hold of john's blues (?) |
|
Must be a thousand hues (?) |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Get back joe |
|
Take back all of your dough |
|
You've got no place to go |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Get back now joe |
|
My sweetest girl that i ever had |
|
She's drive any poor man bad |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Well my ma and my papa said, son |
|
You'll get the kb when you're not on the run (?) |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Well my lady and me we're gonna dance all night |
|
Yeah yeah we're gonna dance until the broad broad light |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
The sweetest girl that i ever had |
|
Was guaranteed to drive a poor man bad |
|
Blue john's blues |
|
Blue john blues |
|
Get back joe |
|
Lord, get back joe |
