But I Don't Want To Do No

All My Life I Been Doin' What People Tell Me To Do. Now, I'm Telling Them.

I Don't Do Nothing I Don't Want To Do.

I Have Heartaches, I Have Blues. No Matter What You Got, The Blues Is There. 'cause That's All I Know - The Blues. And I Can Sing The Blues So Deep Until You Can Have This Room Full Of Money And I Can Give You The Blues.

I Been Doing The Same Things As In My Younger Days, When I Was Coming Up, And Now Here I Am, An Old Man, Up There In The Charts. And I Say, Well, What Happened? Have They Just Thought Up The Real John Lee Hooker, Is That It? And I Think, Well, I Won't Tell Nobody Else! I Can't Help But Wonder What Happened.

When I Die, They'll Bury The Blues With Me. But The Blues Will Never Die.
