Humdrum Blues - Billy Butterfield, Oscar Brown Jr., Osie Johnson

life can be mighty monotonous,

We’re always battlin' boredom;

Where, tell me where has it gotten us?

Everything’s still so doggone hum-drum!

Stuck in a rut, gettin' nowhere fast!

Mmmm-mmm, I got the hum-drum blues!

Fightin' the future and mad at the past!

Mmmm-mmm, I got the hum-drum blues!

Ooh honey,

When you ain’t got money,

Then you just can’t do as you choose;

Just gotta live with the hum-drum blues!

Don’t know which way I’m goin',

I don’t know which way I come from?

Rainin', a shine or a-snowin',

Everything’s so doggone hum-drum!

Love me honey, I wish you would!

Uh-huh, I got the hum-drum blues!

Sure would do me a world o' good,

'Cause I’ve got the blues!

Oooh baby,

If you love me, maybe

we could get together and lose

These mean old, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm, a-humdrum blues!

A-ha-ha-ha-ha, I got the hum-drum blues,

Hum-drum blues!
