Well Of The Blues
(专辑: Walker's Collectibles - 1974)
Amoeba man, he runs from hot, wraps up from the
cold Old evil man, he worries a
lot 'bout how he's gonna save his soul Easy man, maybe he like whiskey, silly girl, maybe she got caught And old lazy bones, maybe he stays home, saw more than he sought The
well of the
blues oh, it never runs dry It never gets full enough of whiskey and rye The
well of the
blues... Preacher man bad-mouths the
bottle and Mama pours it down the
drain Old grandpa likes to keep it within reach, it eases his favorite pain And all year long old teetotallers' songs would echo grandpa's fall But on the
holidays everything's okay, even judges forget the
laws The
well of the
blues... Well, there's natural-born winners and losers out looking for the
old time thrill They get the
Indians' luck, the
burning cup, stuck with a
whiskey still Till it fills the
head and makes the
bed spin like a
wildcat drill Boring a
hole down deep in your soul that only a
bottle can fill The
well of the
blues...
