| why do you always ask me baby
|
| ev’ry time i have to go?
|
| suspicious eyes are doubting me
|
| and now they want to know
|
| where i’m going with my guitar
|
| and another change of clothes?
|
| why do i go out ev’ry night
|
| and don’t come home 'til dawn?
|
| you think i been stepping out
|
| i’ve been playing 'round the town
|
| but honey, you know i’ve been
|
| working late
|
| lot’s of deals going down
|
| i got blues, blues, blues business
|
| ev’ry night and ev’ry day
|
| blues business baby
|
| got to make my music pay
|
| i got blues business baby
|
| i swear the truth is what i say
|
| i thought tonight i’d be a sport
|
| come home early for a change
|
| but there’s another car parked out front
|
| i ain’t never seen, that’s strange
|
| woman, who’s that clown you got inside?
|
| i think you better try explain
|
| i got blues, blues, blues business
|
| ev’ry night and ev’ry day
|
| blues business baby
|
| you taught me how to make it pay
|
| i got blues business baby
|
| i swear the truth is what i say. |
