(j.j. cale)
Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
Yes i heard the news its the same old blues again
Well i wrote you a letter, must have read it wrong
Stood at the doorway and baby you was gone
Took a lot of courage
To let the telephone ring
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Well you gave me the business, though i didn't mind
'cause i got a lot of patience, lord got a lot of time
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Here come my blues
Gonna find me a mountain and gonna hide out
Ain't talkin' to you babe, lord i ain't comin' back
Well i heard that rumor, tell where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will this end
Yes i heard the news its the same old blues again
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
I got the blues... same old blues
