Blues Stay Away From Me:Johnny Burnette Trio.
(Formerly Rock And Roll Trio.) 1956.
***(I believe they changed the lyrics a tad..
and left out two verses. KK.)***
#1.
Well, I said, blues, stay away from me.
Blues, why don t you set me free?
I don t know why, you keep a-hauntin me.
#2.
Blues, stay away from me.
Blues, why don t you set me free.
I don t know why, we never can agree.
(INTERLUDE:)
#3.
Love was never meant for me.
True love was just a memor..y.
It seems somehow, we never can agree.
#4.
Well, I said, blues, stay away from me.
Blues, why don t you set me free?
I don t know why, we never can agree.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
(The other verses.)
My life is full of misery.
And dreams are like a memory.
They re bringing back your love, that used to be.
I got teardrops, so many I can t see.
And years don t mean a thing to me.
But time goes by, and still I can t be free.
