One World

Lyrics

Can't get no sleeves for my records
 Can't get no laces for my shoes
 Can't get no fancy notes on my blue guitar
 I can't get no antidote for blues
 ♪
 Oh yeah, blues
 I can't find the reasons for your actions
 ♪
 Or I don't much like the reasoning you use
 Somehow your motives are impure
 Or somehow I can't find the cure
 Can't get no antidote for blues
 ♪
 Oh yeah, blues
 ♪
 They say it's mostly vanity
 That writes the plays we act
 They tell me that's what everybody knows
 There's no such thing as sanity
 And that's the sanest fact
 That's the way the story goes
 
 Oh yeah
 
 Oh, yeah
 
 Blues
 ♪
 Can't get no remedy on my TV
 It's nothing but the same old news
 Well, they can't find a way to be
 One world in harmony
 Can't get no antidote for blues
 ♪
 Alright, yeah, blues
 ♪
 Blues
 ♪
 Oh yeah
 
 Blues
 Alright
