Blaze's Blues Songtext
von Townes van Zandt

I gotta guitar all my own
I gotta quarter for the telephone
I ain′t headed down this highway all alone
One two three and maybe four
Honey they're knockin′ on my door
I know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone


Got no daddy but I got a ma
Think she lives in Arkansas
Maybe I′ll go see her some old day
It ain′t like she'd really care
It ain′t like she'd pay no fare
But I might just blow on through there anyway

Headed down to Alabam
Cause some trouble if I can
Aw buddy would you like to come along
It′s a place I never been
And you know I could use a friend
They say they'll give us twenty bucks a song


I gotta guitar all my own
I gotta quarter for the telephone
I ain′t headed down this highway all alone
One two three and maybe four
Honey they're knockin' on my door
I know I′m gonna miss you when I′m gone
