Have you heard that rumour that´s going around?
  You got it made, way across town
  It´s the same old story, tell me where does it end?
  Yes I heard the news, it´s the same old blues again
  When I wrote you a letter, you must have read it wrong
  I stood at your doorway but you was gone
  I took a lot of time and let the telephone ring
  It´s the same old blues, same old blues again
  When you give me the business, well did in your mind
  ´Cause I´ve got a lot of patience and I got a lot of time
  It´s the same old story, tell me where does it end?
  It´s the same old blues, same old blues again
  I´m gonna find me a mountain, I´m gonna hide out
  I ain´t talking to you and I ain´t yet coming out
  ´Cause I heart that rumour, tell me where does it end?
  Yes I heard the news, it´s the same old blues again
