16 - Birmingham Blues

[00:31.37] Working on the road across this great big world

[00:34.62] I've been rolling like a stone, I never get back home

[00:38.61] Yes, I've been long-gone

[00:41.86] And boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

[00:47.11] Been across the ocean to the south sea isles

[00:51.37] Yeah, I travelled to the east and west for mile and miles and miles

[00:55.62] And I've been long-gone

[00:58.87] And boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

[01:04.62] Across the world I've seen

[01:09.37] People and places

[01:13.12] Could be the same

[01:17.37] But with a different name.

[01:28.87] I wouldn't change the things I do for anything

[01:32.61] But I'd just like to hear the message of the streets again

[01:37.12] Give me a ticket

[01:40.11] 'Cos boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

[01:45.12] It may be kind of homely but it sure is sweet

[01:49.38] Industrial Revolution put it on its feet

[01:53.62] But it's a long, long way

[01:56.86] Boy, I've got the Birmingham Blues.

[02:02.87] Across the world I've seen

[02:07.12] People and places

[02:11.12] Could be the same

[02:14.87] But with a different name.

[02:47.61] I'll go and stay awhile and all the folks I meet

[02:50.86] They'll say: You won't stay long, you got them travelling feet

[02:55.11] You'll soon be long-gone

[02:58.36] 'Cos boy, you got the rest of the world blues.

[03:04.37] Across the world I've seen

[03:08.87] People and places

[03:12.86] Could be the same

[03:17.11] But with a different name.

[00:00.00] Across the world I've seen

[00:00.00] People and places

[00:00.00] Could be the same

[00:00.00] But with a different name.
