Mobile Blue Lyrics by The Flatlanders

Treasure of Love

0

Yes, I can work a pipeline
Raise some cash, Lord, in the meantime
Baby jumped a bird and flew away

Lordy, Lordy, but my mind is achin'
I'm drunk and down and out and makin'
Time with anything that comes my way

Staggered to that Greyhound station
LA, man, my destination
Put me on that dog take me away

Low and blue, Lord, I can't make it
Got me down, Lord, I can't take it
Here in Alabama for one more day

Well, I called a friend in Frisco, Lord
She said baby's in LA
And here I am in Alabama
Two thousand miles away
I got them Mobile blues today

Oh, when I left her back in Frisco, Lord
She begged me not to go
You know somebody must've told her
That I travel and I lie

And that they saw me drunk in Mobile
With some wired-up chick from Jacksonville
And brother, did we look like we could fly

Staggered to the Greyhound station
LA, man, destination
Put me on that dog and take me away
I got them Mobile blues today
I got them Mobile blues today
