Aaron Lee Tasjan - In the Blazes

Sixty-Six Dollar Blues

Roll over once, roll over twice
Everybody makin' sixty-six dollars tonight
I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Pounding the pavement
I touched the (?)
With the ten pound note in my pocket
From the time I moved to England
Goddam my wallet's looking so thin
Said I could use another fiver
Could use another ten
Now I'm broke as Detroit
Look out Cleveland

Sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Drinking my paycheck
Ain't even buzzed yet
Ain't no woman gonna look my way
When I look like this
Welcome to the music business
It's like a monkey in a tree
Starving to death
Surrounded by bananas
With no marketing plan

I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Roll over once, roll over twice
Everybody makin' sixty-six dollars tonight
I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Well I remember what you're expecting
But if you compromise
Honey, you can still get the end result
It's up to you to make the call
They say you can't buy love
Hell not for life
But there's a shitty part of town
You can get it for the night

I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding
Pounding, pounding, pounding
Pounding, pounding, pounding
Pounding, pounding, pounding
Pounding, pounding, pounding my life away
