YER BLUES (By Lennon/McCartney, 1968. Sung by John).

Yes I'm lonely wanna die

yes I'm lonely wanna die

if I ain't dead already

ooh girl you know the reason why.

 

In the morning wanna die

in the evening wanna die

if I ain't dead already

ooh girl you know the reason why.

 

My mother was of the sky

my father was of the earth

but I am of the universe

and you know what it's worth.

 

I'm lonely wanna die

if I ain't dead already

ooh girl you know the reason why.

 

The eagle picks my eye

the worm he licks my bone

I feel so suicidal

just like Dylan's Mr. Jones.

 

Lonely wanna die

if I ain't dead already

ooh girl you know the reason why.

 

Black cloud crossed my mind

blue mist round my soul

feel so suicidal

even hate my rock and roll.

 

Wanna die

yeah wanna die

if I ain't dead already

ooh girl you know the reason why.
