lyrics

A Bluesman's Blues

By Peter Kern



Why'd he send you 'round to tell me?
He don't wanna see my face no more

Don't be looking on the ground while you talkin'
That ain't no way to say it
Get my shit and get out the door

I ain't good enough no more for this venue,
He can kiss my big fat ass and lick my balls

My blood and guts is what I gave him
I played some nights with a bad jones, that's my problem
Lot's of times I saved him
I tended bar while the prick was out back getting blown

This gig is done, so what, I'll get another
It’s way too early to pick out my headstone

I've been a player for years, played through tears, and fears, and lots of cheers
I know how to work a crowd, get 'em loud, get ‘em mean and get 'em plowed
I'm getting older, but I'm getting better
I'll show that mutha fucka
I'm just now hitting my stride
and I still got my pride

Don't think I ain't had no other offers; I'm just a loyal man that’s what I am
Sure my fingers are a little stiff, but I can still riff
I can't believe what he's doing to me
Let me call him I'll fix it all up...
I'll make it right
I'll make it right...
