LYRIC: | |||||
I've got the sessionman's blues I played on three albums today I paid a sessionman's dues I played what they told me to play Then I climbed in my Rover 3-Litre and motored away I've got the sessionman's Blues The squattin' in a booth alone blues I've got the sessionman's blues But I get the dots right from the start I drink a sessionman's booze But my tenor blows what's on the chart A single run through and I've got the whole solo by heart I've got the sessionman's blues The squattin' in a booth alone Isolated microphone blues I've got the sessionman's blues I'm booked up a lifetime ahead I get a sessionman's news The voice on the blower just said They want me to work on the afternoon after I'm dead I've got the sessionman's blues The squattin' in a booth alone Isolated microphone Doublin' on baritone blues | |||||
