Lyrics
Can't Get No Blues Blues
Woke up one morning
Just another sunny day
Woke up one morning
Everything was OK
Woke up one morning
Weren't nothing' wrong
Woke up one morning
All my cares was gone
Refrain:
And that's not good
'Cause I'm tryin' to sing some blues here
I'm tryin' to open up wide
I'm tryin' to sing some blues here
But I'm just not, just not, just not qualified
I've never been mistreated
I've never been abused
My woman never done left me
Alone and all confused
Ain't never been busted
Ain't never spent no time in jail
When I need some money
The check's already in the mail
Refrain
Well I ain't never been the victim
Of no racial slur
And when I gets sick and tired
Doctor always finds the cure
Don't know nothing' 'bout no ghetto
Don't know nothing' bout no hood
My peeps are my glasses
And with 'em, my visions real good
Refrain
Just don't have no credentials
Ain't never paid my dues
Can't get no license
For to be singin' the blues
Just can't get no blues
'cept them can't get no blues blues
