A Touch Of The Blues

I said it wasn't long ago, I was doing real good
Don't you know my baby was acting, like a sweet girl should
But she found another, whoa Lord, and I got the news
And now I'm here suffering, from a touch of the blues

My friends say I look bad, and I guess they are right
I can't eat or sleep, no no baby
I toss and turn all night, my eyes are al red
Whoa Lord, and I'm dragging my shoes
But I'm not really worried, no, no, baby
It's just a touch of the blues

I went to see my doctor, but he said I was alright
I didn't get a prescription, just some good advice
He said to forget you, whoa Lord, and stop being your fool
If you wanted to lose this touch of the blues

Oh, I guess time will ease this pain in my heart
Then I'll find a new lover baby, oh Lord, and make a brand new start
Then I'll hope that she'll love me, oh Lord, and always be true
And don't leave me here suffering, with a touch of the blues

Blind Man

Blind man standing on the corner, crying out the blues
Said, "I don't need a dollar, and don't you give me a dime,
until you bring back that little girl of mine"
I can't let her go, I'm hooked, I can't let her go
People try to tell me, "Stop crying, and find you someone new,
'cause when that good Lord made one woman,
hallelujah, don't you know he made two"
But I can't let her go, I'm hooked, I can't let her go
I can't let her go, Lord, I can't let her go

He lifted up his head toward heaven and said,
"Lord, I'd rather die than let a no-good woman
make me stand on the corner an' cry"
Lord knows, I'm living in a world of darkness,
but that don't bother me
And until I find that sweet little girl of mine,
Lord knows, I just don't want to see
I can't let her go, I'm hooked
I can't let her go, won't somebody please help the blind
I can't let her go, I'm hooked, I can't let her go
I can't let her go, Lord, I can't let her go

Bobby's Blues

I was tendin' to my own business
And livin' my own life
When I made a bad mistake baby
When I asked you to be my wife

I smelled trouble at my weddin'
As I held your hand
I knew you had barely just a moment
You were runnin' from another man

Sometime tomorrow
You're gonna regret the things you do
Yes but further on up the road baby
You gonna get what's coming too

Well I said along time ago
I don't believe you would let me down
But now that I need you woman
You don't want me around

You told my own dog to bite me
If I come in my front yard
Sometimes I wonder why
You want to make my life so hard

But sometime tomorrow
You're gonna regret the things you do
Yes but further on up the road baby
You're gonna get what's coming too

Whoa baby

I said a long time ago
I don't believe you'd a-let me down
But now that I need you woman
You don't want me around

But sometime tomorrow
You're gonna regret the things you do
Yes but further on up the road baby
You're gonna get what's coming too

Umm, ummm baby
Further on up the road baby
You gonna get yours baby

Call On Me

Love and affection, a heart so true,
a'yours for the asking,
I've got it alright a'here for you
You needn't be lonely,
you shouldn't be blue

I'll design a life of love for you
and here's all you've got to do
When you need a good loving,
when you need a good kissing,
when you need a good hugging,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
won't you call on me

You can't live alone dear,
your whole life through
Everybody has a future,
and I can see my future in you

Cry, Cry, Cry

Cry, cry, cry, cry
That's what I want you to do
Then think about the lonely nights,
I sat alone and cried for you
Cry, cry, cry years

You said you didn't want me to go,
it's hard to say goodbye,
But I won't believe a word you say,
until you hang your head and cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Let your tears fall like rain,
and then I'll know my love for you wasn't in vain

Come on and cry me an ocean,
then I want you to cry me a sea
Somebody's hurt you, just like you hurt me,
cry me a river, cry me a sea

Don't Want No Woman

I don't want no woman, telling me what to do
I don't want no woman, telling me what to do
Well, I'm grown now darling, just as grown as you

I don't want no woman, telling me this and that
I don't want no woman, telling me this and that
Yes, it makes me mad darling, and I don't go for that

You drink your whiskey, I drink my wine
You tend to your business, and I tend to mine

I don't want no woman, telling me how to live my life
Yes, I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't want no wife
I don't want no woman, telling me how to live my life
Yes, I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't want no wife

You used to boss your man, that I can't deny
Before I let you boss me, I lay down and die

I don't want no woman, telling me how to live my life
Yes, I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't want no wife

Helping Hand

Well, somebody
Yeah, somebody
Please somebody before I go insane,
oh, somebody, please lent me a helping hand

I got money and I got a place to stay
I got money and I got a place to stay
But everybody needs a friend both night and day
Well, I walk, talk, but all by myself
I'm so afraid, it's gonna worry me to death
Well, somebody, yeah, please somebody, oh baby,
please somebody, would you lent a helping hand
Yeah, someone
Well alright

Well, I walk, talk, but all by myself
Well, I walk, talk, but all by myself
I'm so afraid,
it's gonna worry me to death
Yeah, somebody
Yeah, somebody
Please somebody
Oh, somebody,
would you lent a helping hand

Honey Bee

Gotta whole lotta honey, all I need is a bee
Yes, gotta whole lotta honey, all I need is a bee
To look in her direction, come live in this colony

Don't do no packin', I'll buy everything you need
Yeah, do no packin', I'll buy everything you need
Just bring your love and that's enough for me

Got a whole lotta honey, no stinging will be done
Yes, got a whole lotta honey, no stinging will be done
I wanna make you my queen bee, you'll be the only one

Don't do no packin', I'll buy everything you need
Yes don't do no packin', I'll buy everything you need
Just bring your love and that's enough for me

Got plenty honey waiting, no stinging will be done
Well I got plenty a honey waiting, no stinging will be done
I wanna make you my queen bee, you'll be the only one

Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz away with me
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz away with me
I've got a fine comb, just need a honey bee!

I Don't Believe

I don't believe, I don't believe you'd let me down
I don't believe, I don't believe you'd let me down
Yes, when I needed you baby, honey, you're always around

I don't believe, I don't believe you got somebody else
I don't believe, I don't believe you got somebody else
Well, if you didn't want me, baby, honey, you would have left me on the shelf
Oh yeah

When I was hungry, you gave me food,
treated me like a king, you never was rude
You bought me clothes, the best in town
No matter what happened, baby, I was always around
Baby, I don't believe you'd wouldn't let me down,
yes, when I needed you baby, honey, you always around

I don't believe, I don't believe you'd let me down
I don't believe, I don't believe you'd let me down
Yeah, when I wanted you baby, honey, you was always around

If I Hadn't Called You Back

Well-uh, where would you be, if you'd kept on walking,
oh, where would you be, if I'd stopped talking
If I hadn't said those words, and if you hadn't heard,
when I said, "I'm sorry, please forgive me"
Would you be happy, would you be crying, Lord, or would you be sad
Where would you be, I say right now Lord, if I hadn't called her back

Well-uh, where would you be, if you'd kept on walking,
where would you be, if I's stopped talking
I only know I need you so
I wonder why do you want to go, after I've said, "I'm sorry, please, please forgive me"
I want to know, I want to know, would you be crying , Lord, or would you be sad
Where would you be, I say right now Lord, if I hadn't called her back

If You Could Read My Mind

If you could read my mind,
then you'd know what I'm gonna do
Oh, if you could look into the future,
you'd see me bein' you,
You'd see me movin', oh, down the line
If you could just read my mind
If you could just read my mind
Why don't you come on and read my mind
You don't need a book to read my mind, no,
just read my mind

If you could just read my mind, then you'd know just how I feel
Oh, it ain't easy lovin' you so much, when I Know your love is not real
You'd see me movin', oh, down the line
If you could just read my mind

You think that everything is alright, just because you see me smile
Oh, you think you're lookin' to the future, and seein' me count every lie
You'd see me movin', oh, down the line
If you could just read my mind
