[ Featuring Matt Cotterill ]
Woke up this morning with the ale house blues
Without waking Penny I put on my derby shoes
The day was calling, only one thing on my mind
Don't want no moaning so I'll leave you far behind
Passed Mr postman, He gave me the eye
Knew where I was going to pass my precious time
"Commiserations" he said, "I'm in the doghouse too."
Well it seems like everybody's got them ale house blues
When there's fear in the whites of your eyes
And your head pounds like the crashing tide
And the morning does feel so unkind
When the ale house blues plague your mind
At the bar stands Mr Blake He's certified Insane
Forgot his trench coat and went out in the driving rain
Smokes Mayfair cigarettes, drinks moet champagne
But I don't feel like moving, staying here for all of my days
When there's fear in the whites of your eyes
And your head pounds like the crashing tide
And the morning does feel so unkind
When the ale house blues plague your mind
Oh me, oh my
What a wasted life
Oh me, oh my
We put the world to rights
I bumped into bellow, I asked him how he'd been
Wish I hadn't had said owt, now he won't leave me be
We paint the town red like we have nowt to lose
Now good morning penny, I've got the ale house blues
