LYRICS

Buddy Guy

Are you lonely for me baby
Are you losing your mind
Black night
Blues at my baby's house
Champagne and Reefer
Change in the weather
Crazy love
Damn right, I've got the blues
Did somebody make a fool out of you
Don't tell me about the blues


Early in the morning
First time I met the blues
Five long years
Had a bad night
Heavy love
I got my eyes on you
I smell trouble
Let me love you baby
Love her with a feeling
Man of many words


Mary Had A Little Lamb
Mustang Sally
My time after awhile
Please don't drive me away
Shame, shame, shame
Sweet black angel (Black angel blues)
There is something on your mind
Too broke to spend the night
Where is the next one coming from
You've been gone too long

Black night

written by: Jessie Robinson

Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
I keep crying for my baby
And there ain't another day is gone

I have no one to talk with
To tell my trouble to
My baby gone and left me
Someone tell me what more, what more can I do

Black night is fallin'
Oh how I hate to be alone
I keep crying for my baby
And there ain't another day is gone

Yeah

I have no one to talk with
To tell my trouble to
My brother's in Iraq
And I don't know, don't know what to do.

Black night is fallin'

And there ain't another day is gone

Look at here

Goodbye baby
Oh God, I sure do hate to go

"Mr. Stevie Ray Vaughan, let him come up"

How about Stevie Ray Vaughan

Change in the weather
Change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather
Change in the weather
People walkin' round in fear.

Yeah, ah, huh, you better duck and run
Get under cover 'cause a change is come
Storm warnings and it looks like rain
Be nothin' left after the hurricane
There is a jungle it ain't no lie
Look at the people
They got terror in their eyes
Bad wind is comin' it can't be denied
They're runnin' with the dogs
And afraid to die

Change in the weather
Change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather
Change in the weather
People walkin' round in fear.

Aha, You best believe it's true
The levee's busted, bad news comin' true
Oh no, there ain't no place to hide
Reach out and pluck you, take you for a ride, yeah
Sheer frustration takin' everything in sight
Won't be no blastin' if we make it through the night
Down on your knees for heaven and pray
But every demon have to have his day

Change in the weather
Change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather
Change in the weather
People walkin' round in fear

High noon I can't believe my eyes
Wind is ragin' there's a fire in the sky
Ground shakin' everything comin' loose
Run like a coward but it ain't no use
Edge of the river just an ugly scene
People getting pushed, and people gettin' mean
A change is comin; and it's getting' kind of late
There ain't no survivin', there ain't no escape

Change in the weather
Change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather
Change in the weather
People walkin' round in fear

Come on try
Ah somethin' been happinin' here, yeah

Don't tell me about the blues

written by: James "Jamie" Quinn

Yeah, you're a down and dirty blues man
Look-a-here
You play blues on blue guitar
According to the news man
As far as blues goes you a star
I'll admit you gettin' down there
But I'm down much deeper then you are

Yeah, you sing those songs of sorrow
But to me you just don't sound real
You say you're down enough to borrow
I must be down enough to steal
Now the blues ain't what you're singin'
The blues is what I feel

You tell me your love light is dimmin'
And how your old lady cheats
You go backstage with all the women
While I go back out on the street
Well, you know that you're a winnner
And you tell me you were born to lose
But please, please, please, don't tell me about the blues

You tell it like you're barefoot
And you're wearin' those hondred dollar shoes
Yeah, you can shuck and jive me all you wanna
But please, please don't tell me about the blues

Yeah, you tell me you a poor man
While you flashin' those ruby rings
But on a million dollar tour
Man, you can flash more than a goddamn thing
But it's me who's payin' my dues
So please, man, don't tell me about the blues

You know you know if things don't change
Little girl I do believe I gonna move on down the line

She stayed out last night
And do you know she just walked in
Ohh, but the little girl is gettin' ready
She's going back out again
I said wait one minute baby
Just before you go
She didn't even look at me people
She just turned and she just walked right out the door

Lord Lord it's gonna me my time after awhile
You know you know if things don't change for me woman
Little girl I do believe I better move on down the line

I took a peak through my window
And what do you think I've seen
My baby sat beside another man
In a long stretch limosine

I said your time right now woman
Girl I know it's gonna be time after awhile
You know you know if things don't change now woman
Little girl I do believe I better move on down the line

Listen

I just wanna talk to my baby
And here's what I wanna say
Go ahead and mistreat me woman 'cause you know
Every every dog got his day
I said it's your time right now woman
Well, well aaahhh
I say, oh well yeah
Girl, it's gonna be, hahahahah
Ohhhhhh, girl
Hahahahahaho
Brrrrrrrr
Ohh, Lord, Lord Lord have mercy now
Look-a-here
You know it good be
It just it just good be
It just good be
It just might be
It just might be my time after awhile

Look-a-here
Look-a-here
Look-a-here
Look-a-here

Sweet black angel (Black angel blues)

Oh I got a sweet black angel
Oh and I love the way she spreads her wings

And I love the way she spreads her wings
Don't you know it

Too broke to spend the night

written by: Buddy Guy

I'm catching hell out here
People and you know, I know it ain't right
I say, I'm catching hell out here
And people you know, I know it ain't right|
Cause I'm so broke, I'm so broke right now, that I can't even spend the night

My only son
I don't think he really know who I am
I said, my only son|
I don't think, I don't think he really know who I am
Frankly speaking people, I don't think, I don't think he really gives a damn

Look at here

I pawned my watch, and you know I pawned my dog-gone ring
I said, yes, I pawned my watch
Baby you know I pawned, I pawned my dog-gone ring
You know I'm trying to ride this old rack-e-ty bike
And I don't even have a dog-gone chain

Look at here

I'm catching hell, I'm catching hell, yeah
And people and you know that ain't right
I say, I'm catching hell, yeah
And people you know, you know, that ain't right
I'm so broke right now, that I can't even spend the night.

Where is the next one coming from

written by: John Hiatt

Well I had a job, but I got laid off
I had a heart but it got too soft
I had a girlfriend and she lied
I had a wife but my wife she died

One too many drinks about an hour ago
All I want now's just one more
And when it hit, a baby I don't care
Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where

Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from

Some folks they say there's just one thing (where is the next one comin' from)
Gonna make 'em dance and gonna make 'em sing (where is the next one comin' from)
Had a little o that and had a little of this (where is the next one comin' from)
Well I checked 'em all off 'a my list (where is the next one comin' from)

All I know is don't get enough
All I get is this old rough stuff
But when I do oh baby, I don't care
Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where
Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from

I want more gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Oh yeah I want more Ooh oh Yeah

(where is the one comin' from)
(where is the one comin' from)
(where is the one comin' from)

All I want is my belly full (where is the next one comin' from)
It's a natural thing for an animal(where is the next one comin' from)
Well I'm tired all of that give and take (where is the next one comin' from)

About all I got was a bellyache
And once a kid has come to town
He talked like a fool and he dressed like a clown.
Only love could have put him down

Where (where)
Where (where)
Where (where)
Oh where

Where is the next one comin' from
Where is the next one comin' from

Where Oh, where huh (where is the next one comin' from)
Got to know , got to know, got to know, got to know about the next one, yeah

(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)
(where is the next one comin' from)

You've been gone too long

written by: Buddy Guy

Yeah yeah
Come on and see about me
Yeah yeah
Come on and see about me
Listen

You've been gone too long
You know you left by my home
Why don't you reconsider mama baby
Bring your fine self home
You've been gone five minutes
And you know that's too long
Why don't you think about me baby
And bring your fine self home
Come on and see about me baby
Come on and see about me
Yeah yeah

Don't you know you worry me
Come on and see about me
Don't you know you can worry me
Come on and see about me, baby
Don't you know you make me sick
You give me a whole lot of pain
Come on and close to me baby
Why don't you listen to me sing
