1. _ B Movie Box Car Blues
Caught a ride into south dakota
With two girls in a light blue desoto
One's name was jane, the other was plain
But they both had racing motors
Next i caught a ride with a gamblers wife
Lay down, she had a brand new rambler
She parked on the other side of town
She layed the rambler down
She said she could dig if i'd knew her
Doing my best to get back to you
Ain't nothing i'd rather do
Look for me sunday, gonna be there honey
Something special just for you
Special just for you
Made a truck stop, toothpick and water
Got a ride from a fruit pickers daughter
Drove her through the night, let the fruit just right
Said all i could eat for a quarter
Next, hopped a train with a hobo woman
Said she's from texas too
The way that she did, what she did, when she did what she did to me
Made me think of you
Hey honey made me think of you
Doing my best to get back to you
Ain't nothing i'd rather do
Look for me sunday, gonna be there honey
Something special just for you
Special just for you
Hey honey something special just for you

2. _ Shotgun Blues
Every night i go to sleep
The blues fall down like rain
Every night i go to sleep
The blues fall down like rain
Taking pills, cheap whiskey
Just to try to ease the pain
Well it's hard to gamble
When you lose every bet
Hard to save money
When you're twenty years in debt
The blues is falling
Falling down on me like rain
I'm gonna take a shotgun now people
And disconnect my brain
Matt 'guitar' murphy!
I made some mistakes
Had some bad breaks
Now my mind don't work
And my whole body aches
The blues is falling
Falling down on me like rain
My life is like water
Just swirling down the drain
Well i tried standin' up
I keep on falling down
Tried standing up
Keep on fallin' down
Everywhere i go
The blues is all around

3. _ Groove Me
Hey there sugar darling
Let me tell you something
Girl, i've been trying to say
You look so sweet
And you're so, so doggon fine
I just can't get you out of my mind
You come a sweet taste in my mouth now
And i want you to be my spouse
So that we can live happily now
In a great big old roomy house
You know you got to groove me baby
Oh yeah
Well you make me feel good inside
Come on now groove me baby
I need your groove
Hey!

Let me tell you something
Girl, i've been trying for days
Gimme some lovin'
And some 20/20 huggin'
Ooh, you cute little thang
Well girl between you and me now
We don't need no company
No other man, no other girl now
Can enter into our world
Not as long as you groove me baby
Oh yeah
Make me feel good inside
Come on and groove me baby

5. _ (i Got Everything I Need) Almost
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
But i don't got you
And you're the thing i need the most
I got a car that i bought
Won't get me far
I gotta wish on a star
Tell me mama
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
But i don't got you
And you're the thing i need the most
I got friends who like me
Cause i got lots of dough
The people recognize me
Wherever i go
I don't got trouble gettin' high
But if i don't get you i believe i will die
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
But i don't got you
And you're the thing i need the most
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
I got everything i need, almost
But i don't got you
And you're the thing i need the most

6. _ Flip, Flop & Fly
Well now when i get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair
Well now when i get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtake me, gonna rock right away from here
Now when i get lonesome i get on the telephone

Well, flip, flop & fly
I don't care if i die

Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye
Give me one last kiss; hold it a long, long time
Give me one last kiss; hold it a long, long time
Well, hold that kiss 'til i feel it in my head like wine
Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth
Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth
Well, she's so small she can mambo in a pay phone booth
Well, flip, flop & fly
I don't care if i die
Flip, flop & fly
I don't care if i die
Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye
Lou marini!
Well, like a mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
Well, like a mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
I got so many women i don't know which way to jump
Well, flip, flop & fly
I don't care if i die
Flip, flop & fly
I don't care if i die
Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye

8. _ Hey Bartender
I went balling the other night
I started drinking and got real tight
I blew each and all my friends
I felt so good i had to blow it again
I said hey bartender
Hey man, looka here
A draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer
Well i saw a chick sitting on the end
I said baby can't we be friends
You're looking sweet as you can be
Well come on down and drink with me
I said hey bartender
Hey man looka here
Draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer
Elwood!
Well we was having so much fun
I didn't know it was half past one
I turned around to have on more
I looked at the clock and it was half past four
Hey bartender
Hey man look a here
A draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer
Well jukebox girl is everything
All the cats began to sing
I heard somebody called and said
Last round for alcohol
I said hey bartender
Hey bartender
Hey bartender
Hey bartender
Draw one, two, three, four glasses of beer

When i get the blues gonna give me a rockin' chair
When i get the blues gonna give me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtake, gonna rock rock away from here

12. _ I Don't Know
Sick and tired by the way you do
Good time papa gonna poison you
Sprinkle goofer dust all around your bed
Wake up one of these days, find your own self dead
She said you shouldn't say that
I said what did i say to make you mad this time baby?
She said umm...
I don't know
My oh my oh my
She said i don't know but my baby's holding down
The woman i love has got devil in her jaw
Clothes she's wearing made out of the best of cloth
She can take 'em and wash 'em, put 'em upside a wall
She can throw 'em out a window, pick 'em up a little before the fall
Sometimes i think you got your habits on
She said you shouldn't say that
I said what did i say to piss you off this time baby?
She said umm...
I don't know, my oh my, i don't know
But my baby's holding down
My momma told me, my momma sat down and cried
She said you're too young to have as many woman as you got
I looked at my mother dear, didn't even crack a smile
Said if woman don't kill me i don't mind dying
The woman i love, i want to wait for last
The woman i love, i have all class
Thought i warned you baby, a long time ago
Better watch your step or i'm going to have to let you go
She said you shouldn't say that
I said baby
You know when you bend over i see every bit of christmas
And when you bend back i'm looking right into the new year
She said honey, you know i gave up cigarettes for my new year's resolution
But i didn't give up smoking
I said woman, you going to walk a mile for a camel
Or are you going to make like mr chesterfield and satisfy?
She said that all depends on what your packing
Regular or kingsize
Then she pulled out my jim beam, and to her surprise
It was every bit as hard as my canadian club
I said what now you got to say baby?
She said umm...
I don't know
My oh my oh my
I don't know
But my baby's holding down
