Woke up this mornin’
(wah wah wah wah)*
Dragged myself outta bed
Splashed my face with cold water
Pulled a comb cross’d my head
Poured a cup of hot coffee
Ate some soggy corn flakes
Had some burnt toast and jelly
Do whatever it takes
Put away the newspaper
Damn depressing headlines
All the world goin’ crazy
Just a matter of time
Feeling sad since you left me
But I’m paying my dues
All alone and forgotten
Got me singing the blues
(36 bar interlude)
12 bar blues got me reelin’
Like a jailbird set free
So I’m strumming and wailin’
12 bar blues riff in G
(*horns, ivories, bass and guitar repeat after each line)
