Lyrics

It looks like yesterday didn't do me much good
'Cause I ain't better off today
My trunk's tied down 'cause my latch is broke
I had the last laugh but at my own joke
I'm waiting on something better to roll along
Little things keep frustrating me
I'm sick and tired of mediocraty
And I'm lonesome hangin' 'round waiting for you
Lost my job and all my money to
The last thing that I want to loose it you
And I'm waiting on something better to roll along

I know it sounds like the same old blues
Walkin' around in someone elses shoes
But you don't understand 'cause no one else had you
You've got me singing those same but different blues

Woke up this morning crazy from the heat
I put my pants on backwards and my shoes -the wrong feet
But I know that everything will be alright
City man is on his way -cuttin' my power of today
Pretty soon everybody's knocking at my door
Got no dollars and my rent is due
I guess I'll move the hell off 12th avenue!
I'm waiting on something better to roll along

I know it sounds like the same old blues
Walkin' aound in someone elses shoes
But you don't understand 'cause noone else had you
You've got me singing those same but different blues

(Repeat)

It looks like yesterday didn't do me much good
You've got me singing those same but different blues
