Buddy's Blues Lyrics

No, no, folks, you'll still get your jollies--

It's just I got a problem that I think you should know.

See, I've been very perturbed of late, very upset,

Very betwixt and between.

The things that I want, I don't seem to get.

The things that I get--you know what I mean!

I've got those

"God-why-don't-you-love-me-oh-you-do-I'll-see-you-later"

Blues,

That

"Long-as-you-ignore-me-you're-the-only-thing-that-matters"

Feelin,

That

"If-I'm-good-enough-for-you-you're-not-good-enough"

and, "Thank-you-for-the-present-but-what's-wrong-with-It?"

Stuff,

Those

"Don't-come-any-closer-'cause-you-know-how-much-I-love-you"

Feelings,

Those

"Tell-me-that-you-love-me-oh-you-did-I-gotta-run-now"

Blues.

Margie... Margie... Margie... Margie.

She says she really love: me.

"MARGIE":

I love him-

BUDDY:

-she says.

She says she really cares.

"MARGIE":

I care, I Care.

BUDDY:

She says that I'm her hero.

"MARGIE":

He's my hero-

BUDDY:

-she says.

I'm perfect, she swears.

"MARGIE":

You're perfect, goddamit.

BUDDY:

She says that if we parted-

"MARGIE":

If we parted-

BUDDY:

-she says.

She says that she'd be sick.

"MARGIE":

Oh, God, I'm sick.

BUDDY:

She says she's mine forever-

"MARGIE":

Forever-

BUDDY:

-she says.

I gotta get outta here quick!

I've got those

"Whisper-how-I'm-better-than-I-think-but-what-do-you-know?"

Blues,

That

"Why-do-you-keep-telling-me-I-stink-when-I-adore-you?"

Feeling.

That

"Say-I'm-all-the-world-to-you-you're-out-of-your-mind-

I-know-there's-someone-else-and-I-could-kiss-you-behind,"

Those

"You-say-I'm-terrific-but-your-taste-was-always-rotten"

Feelings,

Those

"Go-away-I-need-you,"

"Come-to-me-I'll-kill-you,"

"Darling-I'll-do-anything-to-keep-you-with-me-till-you-

Tell-me-that-you-love-me-oh-you-did-now-beat-it-will-you?"

Blues!

Sally... Sally...Sally...Sally.
