Certified Blues

(альбом: ZZ Top's First Album - 1971)

I woke up this morning
With these certified blues
They sure been stalking me 'round
So down tonight I couldn't tie my shoes
They 'bout to drop me in the ground

If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are gonna take their time

I've been living here, way down south
A place that I want to stay
Been working hard just to feed my mouth
Just can't keep them blues away

There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are gonna take their time
If I could shake loose I would feel so fine

You say you're feeling bad
And you don't know why
You're broke and your woman been lying
And just one thing before I'm fired
The blues have just been certified

If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are gonna take their time
