The Same Old Blues, lyric by Bryan Ferry

from the songs album The Bride Stripped Bare

(j.j.cale)

Have you heard that rumour that´s going around?
You got it made, way across town
It´s the same old story, tell me where does it end?
Yes i heard the news, it´s the same old blues again
When i wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong
I stood at your doorway but you was gone
I took a lot of time and let the telephone ring
It´s the same old blues, same old blues again
When you give me the business, well did in your mind
´cause i´ve got a lot of patience and i got a lot of time
It´s the same old story, tell me where does it end?
It´s the same old blues, same old blues again
I´m gonna find me a mountain, i´m gonna hide out
I ain´t talking to you and i ain´t yet coming out
´cause i heart that rumour, tell me where does it end?
Yes i heard the news, it´s the same old blues again
