Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around 
You 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
When I wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong 
I stood at your doorway but she were gone 
I took a lot of time 'n let your telephone ring 
It's the same old blues, it's the same old blues again
When you gave me the business, you [.?.] I didn't mind 
'cause I got a lot of patience 'n I got a lot of time 
It's the same old story, tell me where does it end 
It's the same old blues, it's the same old blues again 
Gonna find me a mountain, gonna hide it out 
Ain't talkin' to you 'n I ain't comin' out 
Yes I heard the rumor, tell me where does it end 
It's the same old blues, it's the same old blues again
Oooooh, oh baby baby
What you make me do
I don't know where I am
It's the same old blues, same old blues again 
Whoooooooah, oh oh oh . . .
