Lyrics

Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham, frank beard

I woke up this mornin' with these certified blues
They sure been stalkin' me 'round
So down tonight I couldn't tie my shoes
They about to drop me in the ground

If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues are gonna take their time

I've been livin' here, way down south
A place that I wanna stay
Been workin' hard just to feed my mouth
Just can keep them blues away

There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues are gonna take their time
If I could shake loose I would feel so fine

You say you're feelin' bad and you don't know why
You're broke and your woman been ly'n'
And just one thing before I'm fired
The blues have just been certified

If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues are gonna take their time
