Have you heard that rumour that's going around
you got it made, way across town
it's the same old story, tell me where does it end
yes, i heard the news, it's the same old blues again
when i wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong
i stood at your doorway, but you was gone
i took a lot of courage and let the telephone ring
it's the same old blues, same old blues again
when you give me the business, you know i get a mind
'cause i've got a lot of patience and i've got a lot of time
it's the same old story, tell me where does it end
it's the same old blues, same old blues again
i'm gonna find me a mountain, i'm gonna hide out
i ain't talking to you and i ain't coming out
yeah, i heard that rumour, tell me where does it end
it's the same old blues, same old blues again
