Yes, I can work a pipeline
Raise some cash, Lord, in the meantime
Baby jumped a bird and flew away
Lordy, Lordy, but my mind is achin'
I'm drunk and down and out and makin'
Time with anything that comes my way
Staggered to that Greyhound station
LA, man, my destination
Put me on that dog take me away
Low and blue, Lord, I can't make it
Got me down, Lord, I can't take it
Here in Alabama for one more day
Well, I called a friend in Frisco, Lord
She said baby's in LA
And here I am in Alabama
Two thousand miles away
I got them Mobile blues today
Oh, when I left her back in Frisco, Lord
She begged me not to go
You know somebody must've told her
That I travel and I lie
And that they saw me drunk in Mobile
With some wired-up chick from Jacksonville
And brother, did we look like we could fly
Staggered to the Greyhound station
LA, man, destination
Put me on that dog and take me away
I got them Mobile blues today
I got them Mobile blues today
