Dinah Washington - New Blow Top Blues 2002 - Remaster

Текст песни

I’ve got bad news baby, and you’re the first to know\nYes I’ve got bad news baby, and you’re the first to know\nWell I discovered this morning that my wig is about to blow\nWell I’ve been rocking on my feet and I’ve been talking all out of my head\nYes I’ve been rocking on my feet and I’ve been talking all out of my head\nAnd when I get through talking, I can’t remember a thing I’ve said\nNow I used to be a sharpie\nAll dressed in the latest styles\nBut now I’m walking down Broadway\nWearing nothing but a smile\nI see all kinds of little men\nAlthough they’re never there\nI tried to push a subway train\nAnd poured whiskey in my hair\nI’m a gal who blew a fuse, I’ve got those blowtop blues\nLast night I was five feet tall, Today I’m eight feet ten\nEvery time I fall downstairs, I float right up again\nWhen someone turned the lights on me it like to drove me blind\nI woke up this morning in Bellevue but I’ve left my mind behind\nI’m a gal you can’t excuse, cause I’ve got those blowtop blues\nWell I got high last night, and I took my man to his wife’s front door\nYes I got juiced last night and I took my man to his wife’s front door\nOh but she was a 45-packin' mama, and I ain’t goin' to try that no more!
