Day In, Day Out Rag

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

Looking to Get High
04:04
|
|

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

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?

Baby Come Back To Me
05:42
|
|

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

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!
