Bastard Son of a Thousand Blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, it's four o'clock in the morning and I'm knockin' on her door She says, she's tired of me, don't want me here no more She said, "Stop your pissin' and moanin' and groanin' Go sleep outside with them dogs" Now, honey, let me please explain, 'cause I didn't mean you no wrong I didn't mean to hurt you, baby Wouldn't do that to you She said, "Bite your lip, now, sweet child You the bastard son of a thousand blues" [Verse 2] Well, my daddy was gone by the day I was born And my mama I have never seen I was born in the back of a black Cadillac And raised by a gypsy queen And as a child I was hell gone wild Raised in the eye of a storm By the time I was ten, I was doing time again 'Cause I knew what that gun was for, yeah [Chorus] (Oh, no, no) I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues (Oh, no, no) don't know what I'm going to do (Oh, no, no) I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues (Oh, no, no) tell me, mama, what am I gonna do? [Verse 3] Ladies have come and ladies have gone But there's one I remember quite well Years have gone past, but her memory lasts But the story I cannot tell Well, I've lived and I've lied and I've loved and I've tried To put my soul to good use Guess I'm shit out of luck 'cause that name, it just stuck I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues, dig [Chorus] (Oh, no, no) I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues (Oh, no, no) don't know what I'm going to do (Oh, no, no) I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues (Oh, no, no) tell me, what am I gonna do? [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] (Oh, no, no) I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues (Oh, no, no) oh, no, I don't know what I'm gonna do (Oh, no, no) b-b-b-bastards, bastards, bastards son, baby (Oh, no, no) I don't know what I'm going to do (Oh, no, no) I'm a bastard, bastard, ba-ba-bee, boy I'm a bastard, the bastard of a thousand blues
