Yeah! Oh, yeah! Now!
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rock was my pillow, too (doo-oo-oo-oo-oo!)
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rock was my pillow, too, yeah!
I'm saying: Talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
Talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
They say your feet is just too big for your shoes
(Shoe, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
Your feet is just too big for your shoes (shoe, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
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)
But-a I - I'm gonna stare in the sun
Let the rays shine in my eyes
I - I'm a gonna take a just-a one step more
'Cause I feel like bombin' a church -
Now - now that you know that the preacher is lyin'
So who's gonna stay at home
When - when the freedom fighters are fighting?
Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
They say your feet is just too big for your shoes
Woe-oh-oh-oh!
Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), keep on talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
They say - you hear what they say
Didn't you hear?
Cold ground was my bed (bed last night)
Rockstone - rockstone - rockstone was my pillow
Cold ground was my bed last night (bed last night)
And rock was my pillow, too
Sayin': (talkin' blues, talkin' blues)
I seem to wear a permanent screw - permanent screw
Talkin' blues (talkin' blues), talkin' blues (talkin' blues)
Feet is just too big for your shoes (shoe ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
