Same Old Blues

(j.j. cale)

Have you heard that rumour that's going around?
You got it made, way across town
It's the same old story, tell me where does it end?
Yes I heard the news, it's the same old blues again
When I wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong
I stood at your doorway but you was gone

I took a lot of time and let the telephone ring

It's the same old blues, same old blues again
When you give me the business, well did in your mind
'cause i've got a lot of patience and I got a lot of time
It's the same old story, tell me where does it end?
It's the same old blues, same old blues again
I'm gonna find me a mountain, i'm gonna hide out
I ain't talking to you and I ain't yet coming out
'cause I heart that rumour, tell me where does it end?
Yes I heard the news, it's the same old blues again
