baba blues

oh baba

some day i'll write you a love song

but now i'll just sing the blues

some day i'll write you a love song

but now though

i'll just sing the blues

i suffer in the day

and the night time runs

and to suffer is what i chose

you lived and you died just for me

love

yesterday they brought me the news

you lived and you died just for me

love

yesterday they brought me the news

still i waste my time holding first to what's mine

it's no wonder that i just sing the blues

i've got no time for the spirit's yearning

no time for those higher things

no time for the spirit's yearning

got no time for those higher things

i've got earthily wants

burning churning inside

and the blues is what that brings

beloved

i do want to love you

don't know why i always refuse

beloved

i want to love you

i don't know why i always refuse

still i'll wait till i'm willing and worthy to serve you

till then i'll just sing the blues
