Gimme Back My Bullets Lyrics - 1976

[ Buy Gimme Back My Bullets ]

(j.j. cale)

Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
Yes i heard the news its the same old blues again

Well i wrote you a letter, must have read it wrong
Stood at the doorway and baby you was gone
Took a lot of courage
To let the telephone ring
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

Well you gave me the business, though i didn't mind
'cause i got a lot of patience, lord got a lot of time
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Here come my blues

Gonna find me a mountain and gonna hide out
Ain't talkin' to you babe, lord i ain't comin' back
Well i heard that rumor, tell where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will this end
Yes i heard the news its the same old blues again
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

I got the blues... same old blues
