Some Funky Blues
 
Some Funky Blues 
                   (Ingram/Vrooman)
Gotta say a word or two
about the mood you put me in
The way you played me like a fool
God knows it was such a sin
When ya' finished buildin' me up
- you started tearin' me down
Sayin' things behind my back
- at least that's the talk of the town
I don't know what I'm gonna do
I hate myself for loving you
What I'm sayin', you put me through
SOME FUNKY BLUES
I remember when we met
it all comes back so clear
The way ya' looked (how could I forget?)
you seemed so sincere
But ya' started acting out
emotions off your sleeve
Poor me to pity you
for all ya' had me believe
I'm payin' some kind of dues
Nothin' to win, too much to lose
What I'm sayin', you put me through
SOME FUNKY BLUES
    (BREAK)
Got my mojo workin'
Got a juju hand
Lookin' for a ring-gang-goon
I got from Sam the Sham
Stopped in at Schwabs', down on Beale,
the other day.
Picked up a pair of potions
'come to me' and 'do as I say'
Throwin' down some bad voodoo
Got Screamin' Jay to put a spell on you
What I'm sayin, you put me through
SOME FUNKY BLUES
