Mose Allison - Mose Anthology, Vol. 2: The Word from Young Man Mose..

I Ain't Got Nothing but the Blues

I ain't got change of a nickel
Ain't got no bounce in my shoes
Ain't got no fancy to tickle
I ain't got nothing but the blues

Ain't got no coffee that's perking
Ain't got no feelings to bruise
Don't have a dream that's working
I ain't got nothing but the blues

The band is swinging
The folks are singing
I just can't let my head down

Believe me Pruitt
Ain't nothing to it
Since my l'il baby left town

Ain't got no rest in my slumbers
Don't have no winners to lose
Ain't got no telephone numbers
I ain't got nothing but the blues

Interlude...

The band is stomping
The folks are romping
I just can't let my head down

Believe me Bridget
I can't get with it
Since my l'il baby left town

Ain't got no house in Westchester
Don't have no Chris Craft to cruise
Ain't got no basie with Lester act
I ain't got nothing but the blues.
