Damn right, I've got the blues,
People, from my head down to my shoes
Ah, you damn right, I've got the blues
From my head down to my shoes
Well you know I just can't win, 'cause I don't have a damn thing to lose
Stopped by my daughters house
You know I just want to use the phone
Yeah, stopped by my daughters house
Wow, you know I just, I just want to want to use the phone
You know my new grand baby came to the door
And said, granddaddy you know ain't nobody at home
I said watch it
Ah, you damn right, I've got the blues
From my head down, down to my shoes
Damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right I've got the blues
You know I can't win, 'cause I don't have a, a thing to lose
Now look at here
Make it so funky they can smell it
You damn right
You damn right, I've got the blues
You damn right, I've got the blues
Well, oh well
Well, oh well
Well, oh well
Well, oh well
Well, oh well
I feel kinda good right now
I wish we could do this every night
You damn right, I keep the blues
You damn right, I keep the blues
You damn right, I keep the blues
Look at here
I feel so good
I feel kind of good when I sing the blues
Damn right, I've got the blues
Well man, you know I, I, the band
I didn't rehearsal this with the band
I just told them, I said just follow me tonight, man, shit
Damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right
Oh

Well I had a job, but I got laid off
I had a heart but it got too soft
I had a girlfriend and she lied
I had a wife but my wife she died
One too many drinks about an hour ago
All I want now's just one more
And when it hit, a baby I don't care
Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where
Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from
Some folks they say there's just one thing (where is the next one comin' from)
Gonna make 'em dance and gonna make 'em sing (where is the next one comin' from)
Had a little o that and had a little of this (where is the next one comin' from)
Well I checked 'em all off 'a my list (where is the next one comin' from)
All I know is don't get enough
All I get is this old rough stuff
But when I do oh baby, I don't care
Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where
Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from
I want more, gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Oh yeah I want more, oh oh yeah
(where is the one comin' from)
(where is the one comin' from)
(where is the one comin' from)
All I want is my belly full (where is the next one comin' from)
It's a natural thing for an animal (where is the next one comin' from)
Well I'm tired all of that give and take (where is the next one comin' from)
About all I got was a bellyache
And once a kid has come to town
He talked like a fool and he dressed like a clown
Only love could have put him down
Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where
Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from
Where Oh, where huh (where is the next one comin' from)
Got to know , got to know, got to know, got to know about the next one, yeah

(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)

I'm catching hell out here, people and you know, I know it ain't right
I say, I'm catching hell out here, and people you know, I know it ain't right
'Cause I'm so broke, I'm so broke right now, that I can't even spend the night
My only son, I don't think he really know who I am
I said, my only son. I don't think, I don't think he really know who I am
Frankly speaking people, I don't think, I don't think he really gives a damn
Look-a here
I pawned my watch, and you know I pawned my doggone ring
I said, yes, I pawned my watch, baby you know I pawned, I pawned my doggone ring
You know I'm trying to ride this old rack-e-ty bike, and I don't even have a doggone chain
Look-a here
I'm catching hell, I'm catching hell, yeah, and people and you know that ain't right
I say, I'm catching hell, yeah, and people you know, you know, that ain't right
I'm so broke right now, that I can't even spend the night

Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
I keep crying for my baby
And there ain't another day is gone
I have no one to talk with
To tell my trouble to
My baby gone and left me
Someone tell me what more, what more can I do
Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
I keep crying for my baby
And there ain't another day is gone
Yeah
I have no one to talk with
To tell my trouble to
My brother's in Iraq
And I don't know, don't know what to do
Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
Keep crying for my baby
And there ain't another day is gone
Look at here
Goodbye baby
Oh God, I sure do hate to go
Goodbye baby, yeah
Oh God, I sure do hate to go

Well now, ooh wee baby, woman I declare, you sure look fine
Oh, ooh wee baby, I declare, you sure look fine
Well there's a girl like you a make many a man change his mind
I said now, baby, when you walk, woman you know you shake just like a willow tree
Oh baby, when you walk woman, you know you, shake just like a willow tree
Why does a girl like you woman would love to make a fool of me
Oh, Let me love you baby

Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby 'til your good love drive me crazy
