lyrics

Well I don’t feel tomorrow
Like I’m feeling today, hey, hey, hey
If I do not feel tomorrow
Like I’m feeling today, hey, hey, hey
I shall pack up my belongings
And make my getaway

Well I don’t need nothing, no…
Just my shoulder and my pack (potato, potato)
Well I don’t need nothing, no…
Just my shoulder and my pack (potato, potato)
Well sometimes all I want is
Just to see the preecher ball the jack

I’ve got them St. Louie blues
Well I’m as blue as I can be
Well my woman’s got the heart like a rock
Like a rock cast in the sea

Well I don’t need nothing
Just my bowl and my pipe, hey, hey, hey (potato, potato)
Well I don’t need nothing
Just my bowl and my pipe, hey, hey, hey (potato, potato)
Well sometimes all I need is just King Cole
And his old fiddle fife

I got them St. Louie blues
Well I’m as blue as I can be
Well my woman’s got the heart like a rock
Cast in the sea

about

Willie Wisely Saint Paul, Minnesota

Equal parts Minnesotan music scene veteran and Laurel Canyon resident/devotee, Willie Wisely remains that rare bird mixing profound power pop with arena-sized showmanship, a troubadour on an all night rave up, a cold kombucha on a hot California day, a McCartney-ite taking a break from his Japanese import of “Ram” for a quick Canyon run listening to João Gilberto. ... more
