| [00:24.18] |
I've been gone a long time |
| [00:26.88] |
Lost in the seven seas. |
| [00:31.86] |
Sail on, don't you come back |
| [00:33.30] |
Until you learn the birds and the bees. |
| [00:38.91] |
Who will you find waiting for you, |
| [00:39.90]Squeeze blood into [in the ?] |
wine. |
| [00:44.07] |
Left to call my preacher |
| [00:45.81] |
And my very lovely wife. |
| [00:47.67] |
Chorus (1) |
| [00:48.21] |
I said, hey now, knocked down, why'd you do it, |
| [00:52.47] |
Roll me like a hurricane. |
| [00:55.65] |
All is a bust and |
| [00:57.84] |
I'm numb, like novocaine. |
| [00:59.01] |
Who done it, what's up, you said, |
| [01:04.65] |
Sell me out why don't you boy, |
| [01:07.23] |
I'm alone, severely broken, |
| [01:10.89] |
I'm a dislocated boy. |
| [01:25.86] |
I have thought to rise my dictions |
| [01:28.05] |
And I've suffocated my pride.(Be)fore you and |
| [01:35.40] |
I embarked on |
| [01:35.70] |
One hell of a ride. |
| [01:36.39] |
Boy, I've had these blues |
| [01:40.47] |
Since I been six years old. |
| [01:44.82] |
But tell me don't you worry(A)bout my very heavy load. |
| [01:47.49] |
Chorus (2) |
| [01:51.03] |
And I said, knock down, drag out, bar fight, |
| [01:53.31] |
Knuckles on the floor. and there's shattered glass, |
| [02:00.06] |
And one hell of a scar. |
| [02:02.55] |
Broke down and hungry, you said so. |
| [02:05.58] |
Sell me out, why don't you boy, |
| [02:08.04] |
I'm alone, severely broken, |
| [02:11.67] |
I'm a dislocated boy. |
| [02:25.83] |
All I need is my old guitar, |
| [02:28.89] |
And I'll play you the best damn blues. |
| [02:33.12] |
Heavy affections, and |
| [02:39.21] |
I hate to lose. |
| [02:39.48] |
Thirty-five years ago, |
| [02:41.07] |
I was born on |
| [02:42.03] |
Robert Johnson's. |
| [02:45.09] |
It's all been for you baby. |
| [02:47.55] |
I'm gonna make it back someday. |
| [03:38.19] |
Repeat Chorus (1) |
| [04:24.81] |
So tell me about your working class hero, baby |
| [04:32.49] |
Tell me 'bout your |
| [04:32.82] |
Mine was born in |
| [04:33.24] |
Mississippi, 'round 1923. |
| [04:37.83] |
Blue collar flannel shirts |
| [04:39.99] |
Was my Father's way. |
| [04:43.71] |
Worked in a factory,' |
| [04:46.14] |
Til his dying day. |
| [04:54.81] |
Repeat Chorus (2) |
