Birmingham Blues
Lyricist：Hooker John Lee
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
Been across the ocean to the South Sea Isles
Yeah, I traveled to the east and west for mile and miles and miles
And I've been long gone, and 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 'cos boy, you got the rest of the world blues'
Across the world I've seen people and places
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
