| Been playin' blues all-a my life | |
| Always have been that way | |
| But I've a got tired of these bills comin' in | |
| And I don't have the money to pay | |
| That is why, I gotta put it down | |
| So I'm gonna tell ya again | |
| It's gonna be my last time around | |
| Well please don't try to tell me | |
| 'Bout all the money I made | |
| Last night I went out an' I played all night | |
| When it was over I didn't get paid | |
| That is why, I gotta put it down | |
| So I'm gonna tell ya again | |
| This gonna be my last time around | |
| Well I know I'm in the wrong business | |
| That don't bother me | |
| I'm gonna take my saxophone an' sell it | |
| I'm goin' down in Tennessee | |
| That is why, I gotta put it down | |
| So I'm gonna tell ya again | |
| This gonna be my last time around |
