lyrics

Hangover blues (Wake)

I got a pain in my belly, got a pain in my head
I was feeling no pain when I went to bed
I was feeling nothing, a feeling I confess is nothing new
I got the top-shelf, gold seal, single malt hangover blues

When I woke up this mornin’ my mouth was dry
I was lyin’ on the floor and I didn’t know why
I was feeling nothing, a feeling I confess is nothing new
I got the top-shelf, gold seal, single malt hangover blues

Top shelf hangover blues
top shelf hangover blues
gut-churnin’ heart-burnin’ never gonna learn
Top shelf hangover blues
Top shelf gold seal single malt hangover blues

The last thing I recall before I closed my eyes
was a promise of salvation on the telephone
I was feeling nothing, a feeling I confess is nothing new
I got the top-shelf, gold seal, single malt hangover blues

Now this poundin’ in my head makes it tough to think
But I know I’ll feel better once I get me a drink
Cause I’m feelin’ nothing, a feeling that is nothin’ new
I got the top-shelf, heart felt, gold seal, real deal, single malt, no fault, hung up, hangover blues

Top shelf hangover blues
top shelf hangover blues
gut churnin’ heart burnin’ never gonna learn
Top shelf hangover blues
Top shelf gold seal single malt hangover blues

Top shelf hangover blues
top shelf hangover blues
gut churnin’ heart burnin’ never gonna learn
Top shelf hangover blues

I got the top shelf - heart felt - gold seal - real deal - single malt - no fault - hung-up - hangover blues

about

Jim Wake & Sleepwalker image

Jim Wake & Sleepwalker Netherlands

Jim Wake and Sleepwalker, like the musical traditions in blues, rock ’n’ roll, and rhythm blues from which the band draws inspiration, is an experience defying easy description. It is music that swings, drives, bumps and grinds, moans and groans, screams and shouts, and then steps back and turns introspective, plaintive, or nostalgic. ... more
