Lyrics

SAME OLD SORRY BLUES

Well, I woke up this morning in that same old bed
I had the same old headache in that same old head
I put on the same old shoes
and the same old sorry clothes
I washed the same old face,
and I blew that same old nose
I turned on the radio
It was the same old sorry news
That's why I keep on singin'
these same old sorry blues

Sorry blues, sorry blues
That's why I keep on singin'
these same old sorry blues

I took the same old bus
down to that same old sorry job
Talked the same old trash, now,
to that same old sorry mob
I took the same old lunch break
at the same old stroke of noon
The same old tuna sandwich
at that same old greasy spoon
I walked by the same pan handler
and the same guy shinin' shoes
That's why I keep on singin'
the same old sorry blues

Sorry blues, sorry blues
That's why I keep on singin'
these same old sorry blues


I took the same old walk
down to the same old sorry bar
The same old guy was playin'
on that same old slide guitar
The same old drunk was hittin'
on that same old Linda Lou
And the same old tavern owner
just won't hire nothin' new
If I start to rock or rap the man says,
"Sonny... take a cruise!"
That's why I keep on singin'
these same old sorry blues

Sorry blues, sorry blues
That's why I keep on singin'
these same old sorry blues

Sorry blues, sorry blues
That's why I keep on singin'
These same old sorry ass blues
(Song ends before last two chords)

Aaaa.... you've heard the rest.
