Birmingham blues

Working on the road across this great big world. I've been rolling like a stone, I never get back home. Yes, I've been long-gone and boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

I been across the ocean to the south sea isles. Yeah, I traveled to the east and west for miles and miles and miles. And I've been long-gone. Boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

Across the world I've seen. People and places.
Could be the same. But with a different name.

I wouldn't change the things I do for anything. But I'd just like to hear the message of the streets again.
Give me a ticket. 'Cause boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

It may be kind of homely but it sure is sweet. Industrial revolution put it on its feet. But it's a long, long way. Boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

Across the world I've seen. People and places.
Could be the same. But with a different name.

I'll go and stay awhile and all the folks I meet. 
They'll say, "You won't stay long, you got them traveling feet. You'll soon be long-gone. 'Cause boy, you got the rest of the world blues!"

Across the world I've seen. People and places.
Don't you know it could be the same. But with a  different name.

Across the world I've seen. People and places. 
Could be the same. But with a different name.
