(Gary Moore)

Hey you with the guitar.
|
Where did you play last night?
|
I do believe it was in Memphis,
|
but I can't remember right now.
|
'Cause I been foul politicin'
|
and I acted in fear to be.
|
I had to get up five this morning
|
with them bells playing in my head.
|
|
Sometimes I work so hard,
|
I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone.
|
Well, I can boogie, boogie,
|
boogie on my way back home.
|
|
Well, I've been workin' every night
|
for the pastes buy meats and needs.
|
I'm gonna finish up tomorrow night
|
and turn myself a plane back east.
|
I'm gonna do my work
|
so I can help my pain and rest.
|
Well, I'll be back here someday soon
|
hope I can give my best.
|
|
Sometimes I work so hard,
|
I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone.
|
And now I can boogie, boogie,
|
boogie on my way back home.
|
Yeah.
|
|
Well, my axe is gettin' rusty
|
and an old slow demon I seem to be.
|
The throat is gettin' dusty,
|
before it's gone that I had thrifty hands.
|
Well, I've been up for heart breakin'
|
and I had to keep my men to pay.
|
I had to catch a plane this morning
|
with them bells ringing in my head.
|
|
Sometimes I work so hard,
|
I'm gonna, gonna play my fingers to the bone, hooh.
|
Well, now I can boogie, boogie,
|
boogie on my way back home.
|
|
Said I learned to boogie, boogie,
|
boogie on my way back home.
|
|
I can boogie, boogie,
|
boogie on my way back home.
