Lyrics |
Working on the road across this great big world I've been rolling like a stone, i never get back home Yes, i've been long-gone And boy, i've got the birmingham blues.
Been across the ocean to the south sea isles Yeah, i travelled to the east and west for mile and miles and miles And i've been long-gone And boy, i've got the birmingham blues.
Chorus: Across the world i've seen People and places Could be the same But with a different name.
I wouldn't change the things i do for anything But i'd just like to hear the message of the streets again Give me a ticket Cause boy, i've got the birmingham blues.
It may be kind of homely but it sure is sweet Industrial revolution put it on its feet But it's a long, long way Boy, i've got the birmingham blues.
Repeat chorus
I'll go and stay awhile and all the folks i meet They'll say "you won't stay long, you got them travelling feet You'll soon be long-gone 'cos boy, you got the rest of the world blues!"
Repeat chorus
Repeat chorus
