Ball And ChainSitting down by my window
Looking at the rain
Send a bomb in my world of night air
All around I felt it
All I could see was the rain
Something grabbed a hold of me honey
Felt to me, honey like a ball and chain
Bye Bye BabyBye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
I gotta be seeing you around
When I change my living standard and I move uptown,
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
So long, my honey, so long.
Too bad you had to drift away
'Cause I could use some company
Bye, Bye BabyBye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
I may be seeing you around
When I change my living standard and I move uptown,
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
So long, my honey, so long.
Too bad you had to drift away
'Cause I could use some company
Call On MeWell, baby, when times are bad,
Now call on me, darling, and I'll come to you.
When you're in trouble and feel so sad,
Well, call on me, darling, I said call on me, and I'll help you.

A man and a woman have each other, baby,
To find their way in this world.
Coo CooOh, the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird, and she warbles when she flies
But she never hollers cuckoo till the fourth day of July.
Said Jack o'Diamonds, well Jack o'Diamonds, oh I know you of old,
Honey you robbed me of my silver and out of all my gold,
All of my gold, all of my gold.
Well, Jack o'Diamonds, oh Jack o'Diamonds, oh I know you of old,
Honey, you robbed me of my silver and out of all my gold.
Said the cuckoo, she's a cruel bird, and she warbles when she flies
Cry babyCry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
Honey, welcome back home.
I know she told you,
Honey I know she told you that she loved you
Much more than I did,
But all I know is that she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why,
But you know, honey I'll always,
Down On MeDown on me, down on me,
Looks like everybody in this whole round world
They're down on me.
Love in this world is so hard to find
When you've got yours and I got mine.
That's why it looks like everybody in this
whole round world
Flower In The SunNow please don't you think baby that I'm on the road to crime, yeah.
You loved me, too,
So how come you just sit there and laugh
And laugh and laugh and laugh ?
Things just happen this way
Not for very long
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no.
Our love affair said it's just history.
Kozmic BluesTime keeps moving on,
Friends they turn away, Lordy Lord.
Well, I keep moving on
But I never found out why
I keep pushing so hard a dream,
I keep trying to make it right
Through another lonely day.
Little Girl BlueSit there, hmm, count your fingers.
What else, what else can you do ?
Oh and I know how you feel,

But go on sit right back down, go on and count,
Count your fingers,
My unhappy, my unlucky, oh my little, little girl blue.

Oh if I could pray and I try, dear,
You might come back home, home to me.
Maybe
Whoa, if I could ever hold your little hand
Oh you might understand.
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, yeah.
Me And Bobby McGeeBusted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train
And I’s feeling nearly as faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,
It rode us all the way to New Orleans.
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues.
Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby’s hand in mine,
Mersedes BenzOh lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
My friends all drive porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends.
So oh lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
Oh lord won't you buy me a color TV.
Dialing for dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until 3.
Move overYou say that it’s over baby, Lord,
You say that it’s over now,
But still you hang around me, come on,
Won’t you move over.
You know that I need a man, honey Lord,
You know that I need a man,
But when I ask you to you just tell me
One Good ManHoney, I love to go to parties
And I like to have a good time,
But if it gets too pale after a while
Honey and I start looking to find
One good man.
Hmm, don’t you know I’ve been searching,
Oh yes I have!
One good man,
One Night StandWhen I'm on the road playin' in a town without a name,
And I'm feelin' low an' everybody looks the same.
Well, you catch my eye, and then you come on strong an' try to make your play.
Just because we loved tonight, please don't you think it's gonna stay that way.
Don't you know that you're nothin' more than a one night stand.
Tomorrow I'll be on my way, an' you can catch me if you can.
Honey, take me by the hand and play that game again, yeah.
Piece of My HeartDidn't I make you feel
Like you were the only man
Yeah I did not give you nearly everything
That a woman possibly can
Honey you know I did
Each time I tell myself that I well I think I've had enough
What I'm gonna show you baby is that a woman can be tough
ShoutWell.......
You make me wanna shout
Look my hands jumpin'
Look my heart's thumpin'
Throw my head back
Come on now.

Don't forget to say you will
SummertimeSummertime, time, time,
Child, the living's easy.
Fish are jumping out
And the cotton, lord,
Cotton's high, lord, so high.
Your daddy's rich
And your ma is so good-looking, baby.
БлюзTime keeps moving on,
Friends they turn away, Lordy Lord.

Мой малышAnd when I work hard all day long
I tell you what, it don't bother me nohow,
'Cause how could anything ever go wrong
When I got my baby, Lord, yes,
When I got my baby, oh Lord!
And when they tell me love is pain
I said it might be true for you, honey,
