[Verse 1]
Give me the hand
Of the one I love
Take me away
To the sunshine land
[Verse 2]
I've had enough
Of this crazy life
Workin' so hard
Like a mad man
[Bridge]
Cold, rainy weather
Is getting me down
Strange talkin' people
Showing me the way
Not what I'm used to
Gotta turn around
Hey listen mister
I got somethin' to say
[Chorus]
Keep on writin' me, mama
Keep on sendin' me news
Keep on wiring me money
'Til the blues take me home
[Instrumental Break]
2:05 - 2:34
[Bridge]
Whole lotta lovin'
Is what I need
To keep me warm
On this winter's day
Just gotta get back
To the land of sunshines
Why don't you listen
To what I have to say
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Keep on writin' me, mama
Keep on sendin' me news
Keep on wiring me money
'Til the blues take me
'Til the blues take me
[Chorus]
Keep on writin' me, mama
Keep on sendin' me news
Keep on wiring me money
'Til the blues take me home
[Instrumental Break]
3:39 - 4:38
[Outro]
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Give me the hand
Of the one I love
Take me away
To the sunshine land

I've had enough
Of this crazy life
Workin' so hard
Like a mad man
