Jj Cale To Tulsa And Back

Blues for Mama Blues for Mama It just seems wrong, to sing this song 'cos she's not here, where she belongs Blues for Mama Blues for Mama Rest her soul

Just sleeping in the doorways And alleys like he always had The years rolled by And later on He spotted an old woman All tattered and worn Hard times had got her Her clothes were ragged and

the right time you know The night time is the right time you know She can't sing and she can't dance She can't walk too well She can't cook and she can

One step forward and two steps back Been carrying them bricks upon my back Bossman told me you ain't getting paid 'til the house is built and the bricks

t no fish around nowhere Fish ain't swimmin' Ain't nobody seem to care They botteled up and dammed it Choked it up and jammed it Killed the life around it And

to walk Life, it seems, is like a dream Until you have to talk Don't wonder for a moment If you win or lose Just stop and stay, and watch the day And
