Working on the road across this great big world
 I’ve been rolling like a stone, I never get back home
 Yes, I’ve been long-gone
 And boy, I’ve got the birmingham blues.

 Been across the ocean to the south sea isles
 Yeah, I travelled to the east and west for mile and miles and miles
 And I’ve been long-gone
 And boy, I’ve got the birmingham blues.

 Chorus:
 Across the world I’ve seen
 People and places
 Could be the same
 But with a different name.

 I wouldn’t change the things I do for anything
 But I’d just like to hear the message of the streets again
 Give me a ticket
 Cause boy, I’ve got the birmingham blues.

 It may be kind of homely but it sure is sweet
 Industrial revolution put it on it’s feet
 But it’s a long, long way
 Boy, I’ve got the birmingham blues.

 Repeat chorus

 I’ll go and stay awhile and all the folks I meet
 They’ll say "you won’t stay long, you got them travelling feet
 You’ll soon be long-gone
 ’cos boy, you got the rest of the world blues!"
