Well I started out at Joe's, wound up at who knows who's
Yeah I started out at Joe's, wound up at who knows who's
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues

When the union of love strikes, you got to pay your dues
When the union of love strikes, you got to pay your dues
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues

Each joint looks the same
From the jukebox to the booths
I been to so many places
I wore a hole right through my shoes

Yeah, I been walkin' all night,
Wore a hole right through my shoes
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues

Love is like a time bomb
Just takes a flame to spark the fuse
I said love is like a time bomb
Just takes a flame to spark the fuse
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues

Each joint looks the same
From the jukebox to the booths
I been to so many places
I wore a hole right through my shoes

Yeah, I been walkin' all night,
Wore a hole right through my shoes (and I can't afford that)
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues
Now it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues
Yeah it's been twelve bars
And I still have the blues
