Frank Sinatra - Days Of Wine and Roses lyrics
Working on the road across this great big world
I’ve been rolling like a stoneI never get back home
YesI’ve been long-gone
And boyI’ve got the birmingham blues.
Been across the ocean to the south sea isles
YeahI travelled to the east and west for mile and miles and miles
And I’ve been long-gone
And boyI’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 boyI’ve got the birmingham blues.
It may be kind of homely but it sure is sweet
Industrial revolution put it on it’s feet
But it’s a longlong way
BoyI’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 longyou got them travelling feet
You’ll soon be long-gone
’cos boyyou got the rest of the world blues!"
Repeat chorus
Repeat chorus
