LYRICS
Walking By Myself
(written By James A. Lane)
Walkin' by myself, I hope you'll understand
I just walk to be your lovin' man
I love you, yes, I love you with all my heart and soul
I wouldn't mistreat you for my weight in gold
You know I love you, you know it's true
Give you all my lovin', what more can I do
Walkin' by myself, I hope you'll understand
I just walk to be your lovin' man
You know I love you, you know it's true
Give you all my, what more can I do
I'm walkin' by myself, I hope you'll understand
I just walk to be your lovin' man
Yeah, I just walk to be your lovin' man
Try again now
Serious as a heart attack
(Written By - Johnny Winter)
Hear me talking to ya baby
I'm serious as a heart attack
If you don't stop the thing's you're doin'
I'm gonna turn your blue eyes black
You never stay at home and you
Keep your business in the street
You don't do no dirty clothes and there's
Never nothin' here to eat
Well girl this love affair is
Pretty close to ruin
Every time I try and do ya - ooh
You say nothin' doin'
REFRAIN
You're the kind of woman
Would feel right at home in hell
Ya stick me with a pitchfork
Just to hear me yell
REFRAIN
ROLLIN' AND TUMBLIN'
Well I roll and tumble
Brother all night long
Well I roll and tumble
Brother all night long
Well I woke up this morning
All my thrill was gone
Well I know my baby
She got a red dress on, yeah baby
Well I know my baby
She got a red dress on
When the sun goes up now
I tumble walking out
Well when I blow that whistle
She comes running down
Well when I blow that wistle
She comes running down
Oh I can hear them talking
With my baby there
Mean Town Blues
Lord my mother she done told me
and my father done told me
My father told me too
Yeah my mother she done told me
and my father done told me
My father told me too
It's a mean old town to live in by yourself
Yeah work for a dollar or several thousand
Could not save a dime
You know I worked for a dollar,
or several thousand
Man couldn't save a dime
Ain't nobody worried and there isn't
nobodys crying
Yeah I got my hands outside to get a hold on
Try to get some of my cash
Lord I try to get my hands outside
to get a hold on
Try to get some of my cash
It's those great big smiles to keep us
out of that trash
So I packed up my suitcase
and I move on down
Hit that lonesome road
You know I packed up my suitcase
and I hit that lonesome
Move on down
I'm still crying to make it when
the day was done
