Have you heard that rumor that´s goin´ around
You´ve got a man 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

Well, 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 gave me the business, you know I get a mind
´Cause I 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 talkin´ to you and I ain´t comin´ out

Yeah I heard that rumor, tell me where does it end?
It´s the same old blues, same old blues again
