Home Of The Blues

From the CD: Fanning the Flames (Telarc Blues, 1996)

HOME OF THE BLUES (Dave Steen / Colin James)

This old house never was much
But you and me together gave a lovin' touch
Now you're gone, it's not the same
The whole house is haunted with the sound of your name

There's just too many menories walkin' these halls
Too many teardrops when the evening falls
I've had enough, I'm leavin' it all
Got no ticket, just my walking shoes
Cause since you loved me baby I got nothing to lose
I'm packing up before the rent is due
This old house without you is just the home of the blues
Home of the blues

I got a cold bed and an empty heart
I think I hear you callin' and it tears me apart
Mississippi Delta got nothing on this shack
I'm leavin' here tomorrow and I ain't lookin' back

There's just too many menories walkin' these halls
Too many teardrops when the evening falls
I've had enough, I'm leavin' it all
Got no ticket, just my walking shoes
Cause since you loved me baby I got nothing to lose
I'm packing up before the rent is due
This old house without you is just the home of the blues
Home of the blues

(instrumental break)

Got no ticket, just my walking shoes
Cause since you loved me baby I got nothing to lose
I'm packing up before the rent is due
This old house without you is just the home of the blues
Home of the blues
