Buddy Guy - My Time After Awhile (2001) by Buddy Guy (보컬) on maniadb.com

What can a man do
When the blues keep following him around
What can a poor man do
When the blues, when the blues keep following him around
Get him a half pint of good liquor
And sit there and drink it all down
Look out

The way I feel sometimes
I feel, I feel like drinkin' me some gasoline
Wow
I'm telling you the way I feel sometimes
I feel like, I feel just like drinkin' me some gasoline
Strikin' me a match
And blow my, blow my fool self up in steam

He
Play the blues, play the blues, play the blues
Alright
Alright

I think I'll move back down south
Where the water tastes just like cherry wine
I think I'm move on back down south
People where the water tastes to me like cherry wine
This Lake Michigan water
Tastes to me just like terpentine
Let me have it now

The things that I used to do
Lord I won't do no more
The things that I used to do
Lord I won't do no more
I used to sit and hold your hand baby
And cry baby do not go

I used to search all night for you baby
Lord and my search would always end in vain
I used to search all night for you baby
Lord and my search would always end in vain
But I knew, I knew all along darlin'
That you was hid out wit' some other man

I'm goin' to send you back to your mother darlin'
Lord I'm goin' back to my family too
I'm goin' to send you back to your mother baby'

And I love the way she spreads her wings

You know I get joy in everything

I asked my baby for a nickel
And she gave me a twenty dollar bill
Yes asked my baby for a nickel

Yes if my baby should quit me

She stayed out last night
And do you know she just walked in
The girl is gettin' ready
She's going back out again

Just before you go

In a long black limosine

Hello San Francisco
Oh, we finally got a chance to meet
Hello, hello San Francisco
Wo, we finally got a chance to meet
I knew someday
That I would walk up and down your hilly streets

You know I love Chicago
Someone tell me it's nineteen and sixty eight
You know I love, I love Chicago
Somewhere around nineteen and sixty eight
But some of my good friends told me
That my baby was headed toward that Golden Gate

You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
I heard he was a big time gambler
and he was running a game down on Philmo

Oh somebody tell me, tell me
Where can this Philmo street be found
Oh somebody, somebody better tell me
Where in the world can this Philmo street be found
You know I'm gonna find my woman down there
You think I'm gonna try to find that Philmo district down
