Always on to something.. No he ain't scared of nothing... like a rabid dog on the loose..
But the young boy scared, and his daddy ain't there.. To chase away the bastard blues...
Out on limb, looking frail and thin.. It's hard enough to get to know ya.. With no friends to care.. And a bad boy stare.. No one dared to look In his eyes..
Chorus:
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze…
Bastard Blues!! It’s always the same ol excuse..
Son of a gun, father to none. Outlaw renegade. Failed romance, begging for a chance.. An Ali cat looking for love..
Swift and slick... With a trick of the wrist.. He'll get you to fall for his lies. He promised his son, he'll be back when he's done.. When he's piss drunk looking to die..
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze..
Bastard Blues!! It’s always the same ol excuse..
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze.. and a cigarette
Bastard Blues!! It’s always the same ol excuse..
Garbage can junkie, street name lucky.. It seems he was born to survive. Back from the slam.. Ready to dance ... Making love to her against the wall.
Punched in the chin.. Wipe off the grin.. No need to put on the gloves. Blood on his blade.. Life is at stake.. When you're wealing and dealing with thugs...
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze..
Bastard Blues!! Its always the same ol excuse…
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze..
Bastard Blues!! Its always the same ol excuse…
Feeling wrecked.. wake to cold sweat.. Hanging by the skin of his soul.. He didn't mind…he didn't have time. The vagabond wonders alone..
Chorus:
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze..
Bastard Blues!! It’s always the same ol excuse…
Bastard Blues!! Daddy’s just looking for booze.. and a cigarette
Bastard Blues!! It’s always the same ol excuse
