I get up Everyday Go to work Gotta make that pay But I've grown tired Of that same old drag Tonight I'm gonna have the best night I ever had! Day In (Day In) Day Out (Day Out) Why stay in? (Why stay in?) When I can go out! (When I can go out!) Don't worry me much what the other people say Gonna live my life my own way Listen while I sing my Day In, Day Out Rag Gonna drink some whiskey Gonna drink some wine Gonna go out dancing Gonna have a good time Might get arrested Might do some time Tonight I'm gonna do whatever comes to mind Day In (Day In) Day Out (Day Out) Why stay in? (Why stay in?) When I can go out! (When I can go out!) Don't worry me much what the other people say Gonna live my life my own way Listen while I sing my Day In, Day Out Rag Gonna drink some whiskey Gonna drink some wine Gonna go out dancing Gonna have a good time Might get arrested Might do some time Tonight I'm gonna do whatever comes to mind Day In (Day In) Day Out (Day Out) Why stay in? (Why stay in?) When I can go out! (When I can go out!) Don't worry me much what the other people say Gonna live my life my own way Listen while I sing my Day In, Day Out Rag Listen while I sing my Day In, Day Out Rag

I'm looking to get high on anything 'Cuz I'm hoping to feel no pain I've traveled around, all that I've found Is heartache again and again Well, you probably won't like me in the morning But tonight could be a whole lot of fun! 'Cuz I'm looking to get high on everything Come on darlin' don't you wanna be the one? It really doesn't matter what you're offering 'Cuz I'll probably take a few of each kind Why don't you pour me a drink I don't care what they think As long as I'm getting mine! Because I'm aiming to get high on everything And I'm hoping that you'll come along 'Cuz the thing that I've learned about good times Is that they don't stick around very long Oh no they don't stick around very long!

I may not be like Bessie Smith But you don't know who you're messing with Bathing my troubles in bathtub gin I'll be singing the blues til the clouds roll in I've lived a lie too many a year Crying all night, I've run out of tears I've been swimming in the deep end of the pool I might have drowned but I made up my own rules You talk about my sweet loving All my kissing You play around boy you don't know what you're missing 'Cuz I've got that something that you need Have you grown tired of me lover? Searching around, looking for another lover But you won't find someone like me in somebody new You talk about my sweet loving All my kissing You play around boy you don't know what you're missing 'Cuz I've got that something that you need Have you grown tired of me lover? Searching around, looking for another lover But you won't find someone like me in somebody new Yes, it's true! 'Cuz I've got that something that you need!

Hello Heartache It's been a while I see you haven't lost your sense of style Come on in, grab a chair and sit right down While I pour us another round Hello Heartache My old friend They think that I'm footloose and fancy free again But I know it ain't so since love went away Hey Heartache, how long you gonna stay? Cigarettes and Heaven The taste of red wine I thought we'd make love until the end of time But I was careless with your heart Like a god damned fool Now I'm sitting here drinking and singing the blues Go on back to the kitchen, grab yourself a glass But I spent my last dollar Gotta make this bottle last By the way, Lady Heartache, didn't hear you say How long are you gonna stay? Cigarettes and Heaven The taste of red wine I thought we'd make love until the end of time But I was careless with your heart Like a god damned fool Now I'm sitting here drinking and singing the blues Go on back to the kitchen, grab yourself a glass But I spent my last dollar Gotta make this bottle last By the way, Lady Heartache, didn't hear you say How long are you gonna stay? Well, how long are you gonna stay?

I don't want you to go Just thought you ought to know Baby, come back to me All the times you've been gone I feel like I can't carry on Oh baby, why don't you come back to me? I never said what I wanted to And if you'd ask here's how I'd reply I'm not sure about what this world's coming to But I'm damn sure 'bout you and I Now I won't ask for your tomorrow If you give me your today Oh baby please, baby please Oh baby please come back to me I never said what I wanted to And if you'd ask here's how I'd reply I'm not sure about what this world's coming to But I'm damn sure 'bout you and I Now I won't ask for your tomorrow If you give me your today Oh baby please, baby please Oh baby please come back to me Oh baby please, baby please Oh baby please come back to me!

Black Cat 03:04
Straight to the point that's what I'll be This yakety-yak just ain't for me I've had all your riches I've lived in your slums But I'm not the man And I'm not a bum Call me your black cat (black cat) Cruising 'round Call me your black cat (black cat) Upside down 'Cuz I'm your black cat (black cat) See me around This little kitty's all over this town My head gets heavy, my legs get weak Whenever I hear that girlie speak Call me vain or call me blind You'll find me chuggin' on the moonshine Call me your black cat (black cat) Cruising 'round Call me your black cat (black cat) Upside down 'Cuz I'm your black cat (black cat) See me around This little kitty's all over this town Call me your black cat (black cat) Cruising 'round Call me your black cat (black cat) Upside down 'Cuz I'm your black cat (black cat) See me around This little kitty's all over this town Call me your black cat (black cat) Cruising 'round Call me your black cat (black cat) Upside down 'Cuz I'm your black cat (black cat) See me around This little kitty's all over this town

There are blues that you get from worry There are blues that you get from pain There are blue you get only from your one and only Blues you can hardly explain Yes there are blues that you get from sleepless nights But the bluest blues that can be Are the blues that's on my mind These blues are the meanest kind Blues my naughty sweetie gives to me

V-Town 02:52
They come from the Nard, Camarillo, Back East Looking for a place to tap their feet Across desert plains and points all around They're headed down to old V-town If your pockets are empty but your belly's full Don't worry yourself with what you gotta do All the cool cats say "come around" To the swinging juke joints in old V-town Tub thumpers, high balls, and gin drenched fizz Loosen that tie and show them what is If your boss is drinking 'cuz the whistle just blew This trains a-headin to the town of home brew Won't sleep a wink, won't be let down Let's go drinking in old V-town! There's dancing and singing and howling at the moon In the streets and the alleys and each back room The rich and the poor and one or two clowns Are all getting down in old V-town I've traveled the world, seen a million things Sampled all the pleasures that life can bring Believe me when I say I've been around But I'd still rather be in old V-town! Yes I'd rather be in old V-town!
