From the recording Long Way to Wander (2007)
My re-working of Dylan's re-working of a traditional song.
Lyrics
I’ve got the worried blues
I’ve got the worried blues
I’ve got those old deep-down worried blues
going where I’ve never been before
going where I’ve never been before, and
going where I’ve never been before
going out further than I’ve ever been before, and
hope the sun’ll keep shining on my mornings
going where the chilly winds don’t blow, boys
going where the chilly winds don’t blow
going down south where those chilly winds don’t blow, and
going where the climate suits my clothes
somewhere I can hear the birds sing
somewhere I can hear the birds sing
somewhere I can hear those little birds sing
poor old heart hanging on a string
honey, babe I hope you understand
honey, babe I hope you understand
honey, babe I hope at least you understand
if I was simple, then I wouldn’t be your man
listen to that old engine roar
listen to that old engine roar
listen to that old, cold steel engine roar
going where I’ve never been before
