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's Blues
|
Get back Joe
|
Lord, get back Joe
|
