Walkin’ Blues Songtext
von Grateful Dead

Well, I woke up this morning and I felt around for my shoes
That′s when I knew I had them walkin' blues
Well, I woke up this morning and I look around
And I felt around for my shoes
That′s when I knew I had them mean old walkin' blues

Feel like goin' out, leave my old lonesome home
Woke up this mornin′, what I had was gone
Feel like goin′ out, leave my old lonesome home
Woke up this mornin', what I had was gone


Some people tell you the walkin′ blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin′ that I've ever had
Some people tell you the walkin′ blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin' that I′ve ever had

Leaving in the mornin′ if I have to ride the blind
Well, I've been mistreated and I don′t mind dyin'
Leaving in the mornin′ if I have to ride the blind
Well, I've been mistreated and I don′t mind dyin'

She got the Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Break in on a dollar over almost anywhere she goes
She got the Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Break in on a dollar over almost anywhere she goes


Well, I woke up this morning and I felt around for my shoes
That's when I knew I had them walkin′ blues
Well, I woke up this morning and I look around
And I felt around for my shoes
That′s when I knew I had them mean old walkin' blues
