Elvis Costello
Eisenhower Blues
[Verse 1]
Hey everybody I'm a talking to you
I ain't telling you jealous
It's just the natural truth

[Refrain]
Oh oh oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Thinking about me and you and what on earth are we gonna do?

[Verse 2]
My money's gone, the fun is gone
The way things look I can't be here long

[Refrain]
Oh oh oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Thinking about me and you and what on earth are we gonna do?

[Verse 3]
Taking all my money to pay the tax
I'm telling you people the natural facts
I'm telling you people in my belief
'Cause I am headed straight on relief

[Refrain]
Oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Thinking about me and you and what on earth are we gonna do?
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I ain't got a dime, ain't got a cent
Ain't got no money to pay my rent
She wants some clothes, she wants some shoes
I'm telling you people I don't know what to do

[Refrain]
Oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Talking about me and you and what on earth are we gonna do?

[Verse 3]
Taking all my money to pay the tax
I'm telling you people the natural facts
I'm telling you people, in my belief
I am headed straight on relief

[Refrain]
Oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Thinking about me and you and what on earth are we gonna do?

[Outro]
Oh I got the Eisenhower blues
Talking about me and you and what the hell are we gonna do?
