Lyrics to The Same Old Blues

Lyrics to the song The Same Old Blues as recorded by Bryan Ferry.

(Cale)

Have you heard that rumour
That's going around?
You got another man
Way across town
It's the same old story
Tell me when does it end?
Yes I heard the news
It's the same old blues again

Well I wrote you a letter
You must have read it wrong
I stood at your doorway
Ah, but you were gone
I took a lot of time
And let your telephone ring
It's the same old blues
The same old blues again

When you give me the business
Well it didn't mind
Cause I've got a lot of patience
And I got a lot of time
It's the same old story
Tell me when does it end?
It's the same old blues
The same old blues again
I said it's the same old blues
The same old blues again

I'm gonna find me a mountain
I'm gonna hide out
I ain't talking to you
And I ain't yet coming out
Cause I heard that rumour
Tell me where does it end?
Yes I heard the news
It's the same old blues again
Cause I said it's the same old blues
The same old blues again
