"Talkin' Blues" lyrics
Taj Mahal & Phantom Blues Band Lyrics
"Talkin' Blues"
(originally by Bob Marley and the Wailers)
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rocks were my pillow too
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rock was my pillow too
I'm saying, Talking blues (talking blues)
Me say the walking blues (talking blues)
They say your feet is too big for your shoes (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)
Me say talking blues (talking blues)
Me say the walking blues (talking blues)
Your feet is just too big for your shoes (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)
Yeah, I've been down on the rock for so long (so long)
I seem to wear a permanent screw (screw-oo-oo-oo-oo)
I've been down on the rock for so long (so long)
I seem to wear a permanent screw (screw-oo-oo-oo-oo)
I'm gonna stare in the sun
And let the rays shine in my eyes
Said I'm a going to take a just-a one step more
'Cause I feel like bombing a church, yes
Now that you know that the preacher is lying
So who's going to stay at home
When the freedom fighters are fighting
'Cause it is brighter on the outside
Than it is on the inside
So don't you take our life for granted
Knowing where we're bound
These words fulfil another mystery
Now that the day's [?]
We're still riding high
Yes, we're still riding high
You know we're still riding high
And we're still riding high
Riding high, high up in the sky
Riding high, Rasta never die
Fire 'pon the Zion [?]
Yes Jah, I know we're still riding high
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rocks were my pillow too
I'm saying, talking blues (talking blues)
Me say the walking blues (talking blues)
They say your feet is too big for your shoes (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)
Me say talking blues (talking blues)
The walking blues (talking blues)
Your feet is just too big for your shoes (shoe-oo-oo-oo-oo)

Joe Jackson - "After All This Time" It's a crying shame, what you did to me
I know who's to blame, though you won't agree
Sounds like the start of yet another sad refrain
Another link in yet another broken chain
It's a sad affair,...
Bruce Hornsby - "Indigo Park" Indigo, roses in spring
The air was heavy as the thunder did sing
I take a plunge in the old-time dark
Pulled her on in and put her in park
There's a heightened sense of possibility
When you don't...
Mungo Jerry - "I Walk Alone" I walk alone, when I'm walking in the city
I walk alone, while the city sleeps
I walk alone, as I listen to my music
I walk alone, as I step out on the beat
I gaze above, into the night time bright...
The Coral - "Leave It In The Past" So many words have been said
We can't take them back
Too many lives have been left
By the side of the tracks
Leave it in the past
Somewhere far away
Leave it in the past
Let's talk of today
So many...
Foy Vance - "Money" I feel the weight of this town
And I see the stakes aren't going down
Seems not everyone wants the king to be crowned
Ah, but money makes the world go 'round
I see the blood on the ground
They feed...
