Elton John - Blues For Baby & Me lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album don't shoot me I'm only the piano player<br><br>Your old man got mad when I told him we were leaving<br>He cursed and he raged and he swore at the ceiling<br>He called you his child, said honey get wise to his game<br>He'll get you in trouble I know it, those bums are all the same<br>There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us<br>So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus<br><br>And it's all over now<br>Don't you worry no more<br>Gonna go west to the sea<br>The greyhound is swaying<br>And the radio is playing<br>Some blues for baby and me<br><br>And the highway looks like it never did<br>Lord it looks so sweet and so free<br>And I can't forget that trip to the west<br>Singing blues for baby and me<br><br>Saw your hands trembling, your eyes opened in surprise<br>It's ninety in the shade babe, and there ain't a cloud in the sky<br>I called you my child, said honey now this is our game<br>There's two of us to play it and I'm happy to be home again<br>There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us<br>So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus
