Ain't got the change of a nickel I ain't got no bounce in my shoes I ain't go no fancy to tickle I ain't got nothing but the blues Ain't got no coffee that's perking I ain't got no winnings to lose I ain't got a dream that is working I ain't got nothing but the blues When trumpets flare up I keep my hair up I just can't make it come down Believe me peppie I can't get happy Since my ever loving baby left town Ain't got no rest in my slumbers I ain't got no feelings to bruise Ain't got no telephone numbers I ain't got nothing but the blues ♪ When trumpets flare up I keep my hair up I just can't make it come down Believe me peppie I can't get happy Since my ever loving baby left town Ain't got no rest in my slumbers I ain't got no feelings to bruise Ain't got no telephone numbers I ain't got nothing but the blues
