Down Home Blues Songtext
von Etta James

You say, your party′s jumpin', everybody′s havin' a good time
And you know, what's goin′ through my mind
Do you mind if I get comfortable and kick of these shoes?
While you′re fixin' me a drink
Play me some of them down home blues

You know, I don′t get out much on the town
And you know, I done cut out a lot of that runnin' around
All week long, I′ve been keepin' my cool
But tonight I′m lettin' my hair down
And get down with these down home blues


Down home blues, down home blues
All I wanna hear is these down home blues
All night long, every other record or two
Now take off those fast jams
And let me hear some down home blues, alright

You know my ol' man is gonna wanna fight
Because of the hour I′ll be getting in tonight, I don′t care
Tonight I'm gonna do without you
I′m gonna get my head real bang
And party off of these down home blues, hey, hey yeah

Down home blues, down home blues
And all I wanna hear is those down home blues
All night long, every other record or two
I say, I'm gonna get my head real bang
And party off of these down home, home blues
Yeah, yeah, yeah, down home blues
