Separation Blues (with Bonnie Raitt)

Lyrics

I'm in the kitchen, my baby's in the hall
 I'm in the kitchen, my baby's in the hall
 I'm in the kitchen, baby's in the hall
 She won't speak to me at all
 'Cause ya know we got, we got the separation blues.
 See that fly - crawlin' up the wall
 See that fly - crawlin' up the wall
 See that fly - crawlin' up the wall
 He won't speak to Miss Spider at all
 When you kick your baby out of bed
 Because she won't treat you nice
 When you feel mistreated, well,
 Buddy take my advice.
 Leave that woman and leave her quick
 Leave that woman and leave her quick
 Leave that woman and leave her quick
 Or else she'll have you on a stick
 It's better to leave and get some separation blues.
 Adam ate the apple which Eve did thieve,
 Adam ate the apple which Eve did thieve,
 Adam ate the apple which Eve did thieve,
 The Lord said, "Adam, you got to leave"
 Well that gave him, gave him the separation blues.
 The last words that John the Baptist said,
 The last words that John the Baptist said,
 The last words that John the Baptist said,
 Just before he lost his head,
 "This gives me, gives me the separation blues."
 This goes to prove since time began
 What those women do to men;
 It's better to buy than to be sold
 To the gutter for a bottle of gin
 If she don't treat you like you think she should,
 If she don't treat you like you think she should,
 If she don't treat you like you think she should,
 Your services ain't no longer no good
 It's time you got you got a dose of separation blues.
