Talkin' Blues lyrics

Yeah! Oh, yeah! Now!

Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)

And rock was my pillow, too; (doo-oo-oo-oo-oo!)

Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)

And rock was my pillow, too. Yeah!

I'm saying: talkin' blues (talkin' blues),

talkin' blues (talkin' blues);

They say your feet is just too big for your shoes. (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)

Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues):

Your feet is just too big for your shoes. (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)

Yeah, I've been down on the rock for so long, (so long)

I seem to wear a permanent screw; (screw-oo-oo-oo-oo)

I've been down on the rock for so long, (so long)

I seem to wear a permanent screw. (screw-oo-oo-oo-oo)

But-a I - I'm gonna stare in the sun,

Let the rays shine in my eyes.

I - I'm a gonna take a just-a one step more

'Cause I feel like bombin' a church -

Now - now that you know that the preacher is lyin'.

So who's gonna stay at home

When - when the freedom fighters are fighting?

Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues):

They say your feet is just too big for your shoes, woe-oh-oh-oh!

Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), keep on talkin' blues (talkin' blues);

They say - you hear what they say -

Didn't you hear?

Cold ground was my bed (bed last night),

Rockstone - rockstone - rockstone was my pillow;

Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night),

And rock was my pillow, too.

Sayin': (talkin' blues, talkin' blues):

I seem to wear a permanent screw - permanent screw.

Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues):

Feet is just too big for your shoes. (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)
