Everything Will Be Alright lyrics - Eric Clapton

Same old hassle every night
All we do is fuss and fight
Ain't no use in talking, might as well start walking
Walking out into the night
You get your gun, I'll get mine
We can do it just one time
If we live no longer, it won't get no stronger
Then we'll know who's really right

All we do is weep and moan
Trying to build ourself a home
Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying
Everything will be alright

Diamonds Made From Rain lyrics - Eric Clapton

The moment's come and gone
Every memory leaves a trace
All that I've come to know
In the lines upon my face

Every storm that I have turned
Each forgiveness I have earned
Every shame that's taught me grace
From you I have learned

No love is lost
No love is lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain

Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain

Every mile of this road
Every chord that's struck my soul
You are the melody
That will soothe me 'til I'm old

If the promises are kept
I'll waive all of my regrets
I can say I've overcome
With you, my heart is open

No love was lost
No love was lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain

Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain

When Somebody Thinks You're Wonderful lyrics - Eric Clapton

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
What a difference in your day
Seems as though your troubles disappear
Like a feather in your way

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Tells you with a smile so sweet
What are little stones you step on
Just a meadow 'neath your feet

And how you meet the morning
And gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

And how you meet the morning
And gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

Hard Times Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

Now it's hard time, baby, hard times everywhere I go
Hard times, baby, hard times everywhere I go
Now these people keep cryin' 'bout hard times, they comin' more and more

Now I don't even see what these poor people is going to do
Now I can't see what people, these poor people is going to do
Keep cryin' about these hard times and they coming more and more

Now I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And the bossman told me that they ain't hirin' in here no more

Hard times, boy, and it's hard times everywhere I go
Hard times, boy, hard times everywhere I go
These people keep crying 'bout hard times and there's no work in here no more

Now if I was a bluebird, mama, had my trunk packed on my back
Hey if I was a bluebird, had my trunk packed on my back
I would fly away from this town, mama, and I'd swear I would never come back.

Run Back To Your Side lyrics - Eric Clapton

'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
I got nothing to lose, boy
All I had is gone

I should've know better
I should've hung around
I should've know better
I should've hung around
I had my head out of the window
Big beat on the ground

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
You know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

Well, I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
Another day goin' nowhere
In this lonesome town

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
Well, you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
But you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me

Autumn Leaves lyrics - Eric Clapton

The falling leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hands, I used to hold

Since you went away, the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Since you went away, the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Yes, I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

You Better Watch Yourself lyrics - Eric Clapton

You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy
You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy
Everybody going out, everybody going out enjoying
You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy

You better stop drinking that gin, sonny boy
You better stop drinking that gin, sonny boy
Oh, you're gonna mess up your mind, yeah, you'll fly by, by
You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy

Can't you hear your mama calling you?
Can't you hear your mama calling you?
You're gonna mess up your happy home
You're gonna wind up all alone, sonny boy
Stop drinking that wine, sonny boy

You better stop using those drugs, sonny boy
You better stop using those drugs, sonny boy
Yeah, if you don't stop popping those pills
You're gonna bring on those evil chills
You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy

You better stop drinking that gin, sonny boy
You better stop drinking that gin, sonny boy
You think you're on a track but you don't know when to stop
You better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy, hey

Why don't you drink some hot green tea, sonny boy?
Why don't you drink some hot green tea, sonny boy?
Oh, it'll be better for you, better for your sweet tooth
Hey, you better stop drinking that wine, sonny boy

You better take it one day at a time
You better take it one day at a time
Oh, that wine, sonny boy

Danger lyrics - Eric Clapton

Danger
She's out into the night
Danger
She's such a pretty sight
She was treated so badly it seems
Now she's looking full of dreams

Danger
She's out into the night
Danger
She walks the streets alone
Danger
All above she now knows
All the men that look her way
Could be hers, hers today

Danger
She's out into the night
Locked into a love affair
Didn't seem to go nowhere
With no choice she thought she might
Rush out of the way and rowd into the night

Danger
She walks the streets alone
All above she now knows
All the men that look her way
Could be hers today
The risk you take, defines your moment
She don't know where, or whom
She wants to do, doing it right
She's going out, to the night

Danger
She's out into the night
Danger
She's such a pretty sight
Danger
She's out into the night
Danger
She's such a pretty sight
Danger
She's out into the night
Danger
She's such a pretty sight

Heads In Georgia lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well my heads in Georgia but my feet are California bound
Well my heads in Georgia but my feet is California bound
Cause that good looking woman I got wants to leave these Georgia towns

Well we ride them old freight trains rent them automobiles
For we ride them old freight trains and rent them automobiles
Cause that good looking woman is tired of these old Georgia hills

And that lonesome old highway seems to be our way no doubt
And that lonesome old highway seems to be the way no doubt
Cause that good looking woman and me, we just hanging out

Trains and airplanes is all we do, I'm running half the time just like she wants me to
Makes me no difference to me when all is said and done, headed west toward the setting sun

Well my heads in Georgia but my feet is California bound
Cause that good looking woman I got wants to leave these Georgia towns

Well my heads in Georgia but my feet is California bound
Well my heads in Georgia but my feet is California bound
Cause that good looking I got wants to leave these Georgia towns

Cause that good looking woman I got wants to leave these Georgia towns
Good looking woman I got wants to leave these Georgia towns

Missing Person lyrics - Eric CLapton

I've been asking some people
If they remember the girl, if they've forgotten, round as a cotton
A dress, have you seen her, if she's much leaner
Yes she is missing is true

She has gone out there somewhere
Disappeared into thin air
I would just like to find her
I would like to remind her - the good times we had there
More than just good friends
Yes she is missing is true

I've been asking around, and what I have found
she moved on farther this time
I've been checking it out, there ain't no doubt,
the woman that used to be mine

She is a missing person
She's hiding away it would seem
She is a missing person
She so much lighter

She is a missing person
She is got a good write up
She so much tighter

Missing person
She is hiding away from me

She up and she left, now she is gone
She didn't even me a
Didn't write me note
Send me no line it's a pity

She is a missing person
Where are you
Missing person
Where are you

Missing person
Hiding away
Missing person
Hiding away
Missing Person
Missing person
Missing Person
Missing Person

When This War Is Over lyrics - Eric Clapton

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

Ain't no sense in the action, killing people all the time
Ain't no sense no the action, killing people all the time
When it happen on the street we call that a crime

These old boys are leading us somewhere - that is plain to see
I don't know much of nothing, still it troubles me
Got to find another way, this one ain't the way to go
Got to get a plan, change our ways or no...

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

When this war is over, it will be a better day
When this war is over, it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

Sporting Life Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

I'm getting tired
Of hanging 'round
Think I will marry
And settle down
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

I've got a letter
From my home
Most of my friends are
Dead and gone
I begin to worry
I begin to wonder
'bout days to come
My mother used to
Talk to me
I was young and foolish
And could not see
Now I've got no mother
My sisters and brothers
Don't care for me
I swear I'm gonna
Change my ways
I'm getting older
Everyday
When I was young and foolish
It was so easy
To run and play

I'm getting tired (I'm getting tired)
Of hanging 'round (of hanging 'round)
Think I will marry (think I will marry)
And settle down (and settle down)
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me
This old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

Dead End Road lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well I feel like I'm running
Down a dead end road
Yes I feel like I'm running
Down a dead end road
I need someone to tell me
Which way I outta go

Say goodbye to the morning
Hello, evenin' time
Say goodbye to the morning
Down a road I'm flyin'
If I look away beyond me
I'll be gettin' way behind
I can't seem to catch up
Just just keeps fallin' away
Can't seem to catch up
Just just keeps fallin' away
Make no difference where I go
Dead end road everyday

Lord I feel like I'm running
Down a dead end road
Well I feel like I'm running
Down a dead end road
I need someone to tell me
Which way I ought to go

It's Easy lyrics - Eric Clapton

If you need a woman, in bed with you
Tell her in front, what you can do
It's easy
Easy as pie
You don't have to BS her, you don't have to lie
If you play the guitar, it won't be long, you'll be writin'
And singin' them songs
It's easy
Easy you bet
You'll be big, if you don't quit

If you feel kinda lonesome, no friends in sight
Get yourself a dog, it will be all right
Get yourself two, lucky you
One thing nice, it'll be there twice to love you
It's so easy
Getting through these times
So easy
With your life in mind

If a woman thinks she's ugly, or always depressed
She can go out and buy herself a new dress
It's easy
Easy my friend
Solves all of her problems, that's for sure
It's so easy
Getting through these times
So easy
With your life in mind

If cash is your problem, you might regret
Use that old plastic, slide two third in debt
It's easy
Easy you see
If tomorrow never comes, everything is free
So easy
Getting through these times
So easy
With your life in mind
It's so easy
Getting through these times
So easy
With your life in mind

Hard To Thrill lyrics - Eric Clapton

Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore

There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before
I've got time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Over forty years of fridays
You would give up trying too

Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
I'm hardly thrilled
Nothing really moves me anymore

There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore

Anyway The Wind Blows lyrics - Eric Clapton

Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move
Bow-legged woman doing the boogaloo
She got a jive, she got a move
Turn around, do it again
Bow-legged woman, where you been
Fat Jack owns a honky-tonk downtown
You can catch a woman if you hang around
You can tear down the door, tear down the wall
Fat Jack he don't care at all
Easy come, easy go
Anyway the wind blows

Hey, drummer, drummer, can you give me that beat
Can you give me that beat, got to move my feet
Guitar player been all around the world
But he can't play a lick for looking at the girls
One two three four five six seven
Well, you'd better change your ways or you won't get to heaven
Eight nine ten, gonna stop at eleven
Eleven just lays around with seven
Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move
Easy come, easy go
Anyway the wind blows

If time don't tell you then don't ask me
I'm riding on a hurricane down to the sea
If you can't hear the music, turn it up loud
There's movement in the air and movement in the crowd
Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move
Easy come, easy go
Anyway the wind blows

Three Little Girls lyrics - Eric Clapton

When this world got me feeling low
I don't need nowhere else to go
Cause I get all the love I need, from
Three little girls

We're in the garden collecting snails
On the bed reading fairy tales
I get all I'll ever need from
Three little girls

Cause all my world was sad and weary
All my days were winding down
Then you showed me a better way
My three little girls

[Instrumental bridge]

Lord, you've put me to the test
And lead me through the wilderness
Then you showed me a brighter day
With Three little girls

Julie Rose, and Ellie Mae,
Sophie Belle, You came to stay
You take my breath away
My three little girls

Cause all my world was sad and weary
All my days were winding down
You showed me a better way
My three little girls

Three little girls

Don't Cry Sister lyrics - Eric Clapton

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, i tell you no lie
Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it

When old man trouble knocks on your door
Don't give him no key, he just wants more
He'll turn your life to misery
Kick you down, just like me

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine

Woke downhearted and you feel so bad
Somebody wants something of nothing you had
Love don't come too easy, you see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Everything'll be just fine
Everything'll be just fine

Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it
Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it

Last Will And Testament lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well I met this woman, she was hard as nails
I think she'd just come out of the county jail
But I loaned her some money, just to pay her rent
If I would she would put me in her last will and testament

Well I got lots of children, an ex-wife or two
I never hear from them, 'till the bills are due
The money I gave 'em, they already spent
If I could just slip'em out, you've put me in that last will and testament

You know I'm going over sixty, I'm older than most
It won't be long now, I'll be nothing but a ghost
My intentions, it's my intent
To leave all of them people out of my last will and testament

And when it's all over, they put you in the ground
Send my belongings to the lost and found
My intention, it's my intent
To leave all of them people out of my last will and testament
Hey hey hey, hey

Who Am I Telling You lyrics - Eric Clapton

It don't take no fool to love you
You stand out in any crowd
And I know men who want to own you
I can hear them talking loud
There ain't no point in just me talking
Who am I telling you?

But you don't got yourself together
And you can bet whithin in you
I just realised
I just realised
Who am I telling you?

You never lose, you are a winner
It's a simple thing for you
If I'm standing at a crossroad
You know exactly what to do
From this moment on I loved you
Somewhere in between I learned
I'm just reaching out to touch you
It's the point of no return
I just realised
I just realised
And I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

I just realised
I just realised
And I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

Ride The River lyrics - Eric Clapton

Floatin' down that old river boy, all my worries far behind,
Floatin' down that old river boy, leave old memories way behind,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
All my life, I've been waitin', for this time.

Floatin' down that old river boy, leaves me feelin' good inside,
Floatin' down that old river boy, tryin' to get to the other side,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
I been waitin', now forever, for this ride.

[Refrain:]
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.

Floatin' down that old river boy, all my worries far behind,
Floatin' down that old river boy, leave old memories way behind,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
I been waitin', now forever, for this ride

[Refrain]

So Tired lyrics - Eric Clapton

Get up in the morning already yawning and I'm so tired
I Ain't had a wink of sleep seems like all week
We're So tired
The Baby's only feeding and one of them is teething

Say What You Will lyrics - Eric Clapton

Say what you will
Good love is hard to find
I've had my fill of the hurtin' kind

Take alot of money
To buy up all the pain

Take alot of honey
To fill me up and put me back
On my feet again

You've seen the worst
Still you find the best of me
My love was cursed
Loosin' destiny

Take alot of livin'
To dry up all the tears
Take alot of grinnin'
To cheer me up and put me back
On my feet again

You know I needed a friend
I could tell my troubles to
And you have been my friend
So I will give my love to you
Good love from me to you

Here it comes again
I feel I'm not good enough
Can't remember when
It ever felt so tough

Take alot huggin'
Drive away the fear
Take alot of lovin'
To pick me up and put me back
On my feet again

You know I needed a friend
I could tell my troubles to
And you have been my friend
So I will give my love to you
Good love from me to you

I know you needed a friend
You could tell your troubles to
And I'll be your friend
And I will give my love to you
Good love from me to you

Good love
Good love
Good love from me to you
Good love

Going Left lyrics - Eric Clapton

[Chorus:]
(Well) I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right

There's a train people say
I could ride to get my whole life straight
But the bridge on the way
Has a toll too much for me to pay
Yes I know it must be
What I chose could mean my destiny
Lights are green all is go
But my heart keeps telling my mind no

[Chorus]

There's a plane over there
Where all are given even share
What you get is so small
It's like never having nothing at all
Take my hand says a friend
A will stick with you until the end
But I'm in doubt I must decline
'Cause even friends can change their lines

[Chorus]

Love Don't Love Nobody lyrics - Eric Clapton

(originally by The Spinners)

Sometimes a girl
Will come and go
You reach for love
But life wont let ya know
That in the end
Youll still be lovin her
But then shes gone
Youre all alone

Sign of pain
Is on my face, well
My hearbeat stops
But I wont take the blame, no no
I gave her all the love I had within
My love was strong
Somethin went wrong, no! no!

It takes a fool to learn
Yes sir
That love don't love nobody
Love love love love love love
It takes a fool to learn
Yes it does, girl
That love don't love no one
That love don't love no one
It takes a fool to learn
Stop to think about it, well
That love don't love nobody
Oh! Oh no!
It takes a fool to learn
When youre down and out, shout about it
That love don't love no more
Tell the world, oooh babe
No more...
Ohhhhhh, babe
It takes a fool to learn
Gotta be more careful about myself
That love don't love nobody
It takes a fool to learn
Woah baby, took me a long time to learn, to learn, well

That love don't love no one
It takes a fool to learn
I was a fool, you were a fool
That love don't love nobody
Now we got love, we need love
It takes a fool to learn

Lost And Found lyrics - Eric Clapton

Falling in the deep end
Stop messin' around
I cant keep from falling
When your not around
I cant no rest when you leave
Your love keeps me burnin'
You got me lost and found
And my world keeps turnin'

It's not the same
When your gone
Feel like I'm
Half of myself
Cause i need to have you around

I need to hear that sound
Of you creepin in the mornin'
I need to look in your eyes
When it keeps me learnin'

It's not the same
When your gone
Feel like I'm
Half of myself
Cause I cant keep my feet on the ground
You keep my lost and found
And girl it feels good

So, I want you to know
Im ready to let it show
That I'll be around

It's not the same
When your gone
Feel like I'm
Half of myself
It's not the same
When your gone
Feel like I'm
Half of a man
But, I cant keep my feet on the ground
You got me lost and found
And, girl, it feels good

So, I want you to know
I'm ready to let it show
That I'll be around

Cant keep my feet on the ground
You got me lost and found
And girl it feels good

So, I want you to know
I'm ready to let it show
That I'll be around

My life was always draggin on
You showed me how to be in love

Never let your love fall away

And I love everything about you baby

This is heaven when your close to me
Oh, it flows like a river

This is heaven when your close to me
And I'll give a piece of my heart

This is heaven when your close to me
Oh, it flows like a river

This is heaven when your close to me
And I'll give a piece of my heart

(Heaven... close to me)
(Heaven... close to me)
(I'll give a piece, piece of my heart)
(I'll give a piece, piece of my heart)

Love Comes To Everyone lyrics - Eric Clapton

Go do it,
Got to go through that door,
There's no easy was out at all...
Still it only takes time
'Til love comes to everyone.

For you who it always seems blue
It all comes, it never rains
But it pours,
Still it only takes time...
'Til love comes to everyone.

There in your heart...
Something that's never changing;
Always a part of...
Something that's never ageing,
That's in your heart...

It's so true it can happen to you all; there,
Knock and it will open wide,
And it only takes time
'Til love comes to everyone.

One Day lyrics - Eric Clapton

One day
I believe
One day
I can see
Baby
Out in the country, maybe down by the sea
Will I wake up one morning and find that I've been set free
One day
One day

Some day
I can't say how
Some day
But I don't know now
Maybe tomorrow when I'm old and gray
What I ever wanted will finally come my way
One day
One day

One day
This dream will come true
One day
Maybe you will too
Maybe flying high, maybe close to the ground
I will hear your voice and I'll know I've been found
Hold me tight, baby make me stay
I can hear every word you've been trying to say
One day
One day

One Track Mind lyrics - Eric Clapton

Tossing and turning
All night long
Down in my pillow
Felt so strong
Had to get up
And write this song
Baby where do we go from here?

Can't do anything to make you see
You've been your loving was made for me
What can I do
To make you see
That with you I can't go wrong

All I do is pray
That you will come my way
No doubt about it
I've got a one track mind

You took my breath so easily
And You touched my heart so carefully
And You give your love so tenderly
And You can't do nothing wrong

I got no time for no one else
And I got no love for no one else
Cause I don't believe in no one else
With you I do belong

[Chorus:]
As far as I can see
You're the one for me
No doubt about it
I've got a one track mind

[Chorus]

You take my breath so easily
And you took my heart so carefully
And you give your love so readily
And you can't do nothing wrong

[Chorus 2x and fade]

Run Home To Me lyrics - Eric Clapton

We went down to the seaside,
One cold frosty morning.
Just to go out for a drive,
For an hour or two.

I walked down to the water,
With my love and our baby.
Watched the waves breaking in,
We're enjoying the view.

Then I heard myself saying,
"We should do this more often,
To watch the little ones playing,
On that bright stony shore."

And I wished deep down in my heart,
That we could stay here forever.
In these sweet simple moments,
That will come back no more.

When it's 3 o'clock in the morning,
And something scared you from your breast,
I will gently rock you in my arms,
And lay your little head on my chest,

And when you run, from my arms,
Know we'll always find you.
And when you run, out of loving,
And run home to me. (Run home to me)

And the years fly by so quickly,
Like a plane before my eyes,
And you've grown up into a woman,
Before I had time, had time to realize.

And then you'll run, from my arms,
And we'll always come and find you.
And when you run, out of loving,
Then run home to me.

Lord when you run, run out of my arms,
We will always come and find you,
And when you run, out of loving,
Then run home to me. (Run home to me)

Back Home lyrics - Eric Clapton

I've been on the road too long
Moving in the wrong direction
I don't know where I belong
I don't know what I will do
If I can't get back home

Troubles I got on my rope
They don't fit no other person
The memories keep rollin' on
And I don't know what I will do
If I can't get back home

I don't fit but I don't give a damn
I won't quit 'cause I know who I am
And I'll admit and I've been on the left

Bit by bit, I'll review my plan
This is it, do the best I can
Trust and understand

'Cause I know that I am loved
'Cause I'll be on my way
Got no need to stay 'round here

'Cause I been on this road too long
Going in the wrong direction
And I don't know where I come from
All I know is I will die
If I don't get back home

"Me And Mr. Johnson" (2004)

When You Got A Good Friend lyrics - Eric Clapton

When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
Give her all your spare time,
Love and treat her right.

I mistreated my baby
And I can't see no reason why.
I mistreated my baby
And I can't see no reason why.
Any time I think about it
I just wring my hands and cry.

Wonder could I ever apologize
Or would she sympathize with me?
Would she sympathize with me?
She's a brown-skin woman,
Just as sweet as a girlfriend can be.

Babe, I may be right or wrong.
Babe, it's your opinion,
Well, I may be right or wrong.
Watch your close friend, baby,
Then your enemies can't do you no harm.

When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
Give her all your spare time,
Love and treat her right.

Little Queen Of Spades lyrics - Eric Clapton

She is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Said she is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Everytime she make a spread,
Oh fair brown, cold chills run all over me.

Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
A man don't need a woman,
Oh fair brown, that he got to give all of his money to.

Everybody said you got a mojo,
'Cause baby, you've been using that stuff.
Everybody said you got a mojo
Baby, you've been using that stuff.
Got a way trimming down,
Oh fair brown, and I mean it's most too tough.

Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Let us put our heads together,
Oh fair brown, and we can make our money green.

Me And The Devil Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

Early this morning,
You knocked upon my door,
Early this morning,
You knocked upon my door,
And I said, "Hello, Satan,
I believe it's time to go."

Me and the devil
Were walking side by side.
Me and the devil
Were walking side by side.
I'm gonna beat my woman
Until I get satisfied.

She said she don't see why,
That I will dog her 'round.
(Now baby, you know you ain't doing me right.)
She said she don't see why, That I will dog her 'round.
Well, it must be that old evil spirit
So deep down in the ground.

You may bury my body
Down by the highway side.
(I don't care where you bury my body when I'm dead and gone.)
You may bury my body
Down by the highway side.
Oh, my old evil spirit
Can take a Greyhound bus and ride.

Traveling Riverside Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

If your man gets personal,
Want you to have your fun.
If your man gets personal,
Want you to have your fun.
Well, come on back to Friar's Point, mama,
Barrelhouse all night long.

I got womens in Vicksburg,
Clean on into Tennessee.
I got womens in Vicksburg,
Clean on into Tennessee.
But my Friar's Point rider, now,
Hops all over me.

I ain't gonna state no color but
Her front teeth is crowned with gold.
I ain't gonna state no color but
Her front teeth is crowned with gold.
She got a mortgage on my body, Lord,
A lien on my soul.

Well, I'm going down to Rosedale,
Rider by my side.
Lord, I'm going down to Rosedale,
Rider by my side.
Well, we can still barrelhouse, babe,
On the riverside.

You can squeeze my lemon till
Juice run down my leg.
You can squeeze my lemon till
Juice run down my leg.
That's what I'm talking about!
But I'll be going back to Friar's Point, mama,
Rocking to my head.

Stop Breakin' Down Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

Every time I'm walking down the street,
Some pretty mama start breakin' down with me.

[Chorus:]
Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

I can't walk the streets now to consolate my mind.
Some pretty mama starts breakin' down.

[Chorus]

Now, you Saturday night women, you love to ape and clown.
Won't do nothing but tear a good man reputation down.

[Chorus]

Well, I give my baby the ninety-nine degrees.
She jumped up and throwed a pistol down on me.

[Chorus]

Well now, I can't start walking down the streets,
Some pretty woman start breakin' down with me.

[Chorus]

Milkcow's Calf Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

Tell me, milk cow,
What on Earth is wrong with you?
Oh, milk cow,
What on Earth is wrong with you?
Now, you've left you a calf
And your milk is turning blue.

Lord, your calf is hungry
And I believe he needs a suck.
Lord, your calf is hungry,
I believe he needs a suck.
Well, your milk is turning blue.
I believe he's out of luck.

Now, I feel like milking and my cow won't come.
I feel like churning and my milk won't turn.
I'm cryin' please,
Please, don't do me wrong.
If you see my milk cow, baby now,
Please drive her home.

Lord, my milk cow been rambling
For miles around.
Lord, my milk cow been rambling
For miles around.
Well, how can you suck on some other man's bull cow
In this strange man's town?

Kindhearted Woman Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

I got a kind-hearted woman,
Do anything in this world for me.
I got a kind-hearted woman,
Do anything in this world for me.
These evil-hearted women,
Man, they will not let me be.

I love my baby,
My baby don't love me.
I love my baby,
My baby don't love me.
Really love that woman,
Can't stand to leave her be.

Ain't but one thing makes Mr. Johnson drink.
Swear 'bout how you treat me, babe, I begin to think.
Oh babe, my life don't feel the same.
You break my heart when you call Mr. So-and-So's name.

I got a kind-hearted woman,
Studies evil all the time.
I got a kind-hearted woman,
Studies evil all the time.
You wish to kill me,
Just to have it on your mind.

Come On In My Kitchen lyrics - Eric Clapton

[Chorus:]
You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

The woman I love stole my best friend.
Some joker got lucky, stole her back again.

[Chorus]

Uh huh, she gone, know she won't come back.
I take the last nickel out of her nation sack.

[Chorus 2x]

When a woman get in trouble, everybody throws her down.
Looking for her good friend, they can't be found.

[Chorus]

Any time you've coming, it's gonna be so.
You can't make the winter, baby, just drive on slow.

[Chorus 2x]

If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day lyrics - Eric Clapton

If I had possession over judgment day,
If I had possession over judgment day,
Lord, the women I'm lovin' would have no right to pray.

And I went to the mountain, far as my eye could see.
Lord, I went to the mountain, far as my eye could see.
Some other man got my woman and the lonesome blues got me.

And I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
Lord, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
And I woke up this morning, my biscuit rollin' on.

Had to fold my arms and slowly walked away.
(I didn't like the way she done.)
Lord, I fold my arms and I slowly walked away.
Well, I said in my mind, "Your trouble gonna come some day."

Well, now run here baby, get down on bended knee.
Lord, now run here baby, get down on bended knee.
I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me.

Love In Vain lyrics - Eric Clapton

Well, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Lord, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Well, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell,
When all your love's in vain.
All my love is in vain.

When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome,
And I could not help but cry.
All my love is in vain.

Well, the train it left the station
With two lights on behind.
Well, the train it left the station
With two lights on behind.
Well, the blue light was my blues,
The red light was my mind.
All my love is in vain.

Oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh vee oh woe.
All my love is in vain.

32-20 Blues lyrics - Eric Clapton

If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
Send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none.

If she gets unruly, thinks she don't wanna do,
She gets unruly, thinks she don't wanna do,
Take my 32-20, boy, cut her half in two.

She got a .38 special but I believe it's most too light.
.38 special but I believe it's most too light.
I got a 32-20 to make the camps all right.

If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
Send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
Them doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none.

Gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my gatling gun.
Gonna shoot my pistol, gotta shoot my gatling gun.
You made me love you, now your man have come.

Ow, baby, where you stay last night?
Ow, baby, where'd you stay last night?
You got your hair all tangled and you ain't talking right.

Got a .38 special, boy, it do very well.
Got a .38 special and it do very well.
Got a 32-20 now, it's a burning hell.

If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
I send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
All the doctors in West Point sure can't help her none.

Ow, baby, where'd you stay last night?
Ow, baby, where'd you stay last night?
You didn't come home till the sun was shining bright.

Ow, boy, I just can't take my rest,
Ow, boy, I just can't take my rest,
With this 32-20 laying up and down my breast.

Hellhound On My Trail lyrics - Eric Clapton

I got to keep moving, I got to keep moving
Blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
Mmm, blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
And the day keeps on remindin' me, there's a hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail, hellhound on my trail

If today was Christmas eve, if today was Christmas eve
And tomorrow was Christmas day
If today was Christmas eve and tomorrow was Christmas day
All I would need is my little sweet rider
Just to pass the time away, to pass the time away

You sprinkled hot foot powder, mmm, around my door
All around my door
You sprinkled hot foot powder, all around your daddy's door
It keeps me with ramblin' mind rider
Every old place I go, every old place I go

I can tell the wind is risin', the leaves tremblin' on the tree
Tremblin' on the tree
I can tell the wind is risin', leaves tremblin' on the tree
All I need is my little sweet woman
And to keep my company, hey, hey, hey, hey, my company
