Standard (EADGBE)

Talk about blues

 I got the meanest kind

Talk about blues baby

 I got the meanest kind

 I got those mecca flat blues

Can't get 'em off my mind

 A mecca flat woman

 Makes a good man feel bad (she'll make him cry)

A mecca flat woman

 Makes a good man feel bad (she'll make him cry)

 Give him cocaine and whiskey

But she'll never let him die

I'm gonna find

A mecca flat man today (oh baby)

I'm gonna find

 A mecca flat man today

 Because i've got the blues baby

 And somebody's got to pay

 What are we gonna do

 When they burn the barrel house down (down, down, down)

 What are we gonna do

 When they burn the barrel house down

 We'll move the jazz band outside

 And barrel-house on the ground

 Talk about blues

 I got the meanest kind

Talk about blues baby

 I got the meanest kind

 I got those mecca flat blues

Can't get 'em off my mind
