ZZ Top
Certified Blues
[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
With these certified blues
They sure been stalking me round
So down tonight I couldn't tie my shoes
They 'bout to drop me in the ground

[Chorus]
If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are going to take their time

[Verse 2]
I've been living here, way down south
A place that I want to stay
Been working hard just to feed my mouth
Just can't keep them blues away

[Chorus]
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are going to take their time
If I could shake loose I would feel so fine

[Instrumental break 1:32-2:37]
[Verse 3]
You say you're feeling bad
And you don't know why
You're broke and your woman been lying
And just one thing before I'm fired
The blues have just been certified

[Outro]
If I could shake loose I would feel so fine
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind
These certified blues
Are gonna take their time
