1. WHAT'S UP WITH THAT

Well how much blues do you use
Before you use it up
And how many fools take a chance
Before they hit it lucky

Tomorrow's wanna be the day
It never seem to work that way

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that

Everybody want a little more
Than they think they got
But what you might think it is,

Might really not be, baby
Pick it up or leave it lay
It always seem to slip away

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that

Now how high will a river get
Before it overflows
And how long is the hole to China
It don't really know

This is what it's all about
There's always gonna be a doubt

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that


2. WHAT'S UP WITH THAT

Well how much blues do you use
Before you use it up
And how many fools take a chance
Before they hit it lucky

Tomorrow's wanna be the day
It never seem to work that way

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that

Everybody want a little more
Than they think they got
But what you might think it is,

Might really not be, baby
Pick it up or leave it lay
It always seem to slip away

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that

Now how high will a river get
Before it overflows
And how long is the hole to China
It don't really know

This is what it's all about
There's always gonna be a doubt

What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that
What's up with that


3. STOP BREAKIN' DOWN BLUES

Every time I'm walking down the street,
Some pretty mama start breakin' down with me.

Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

I can't walk the streets now to consolate my mind.
Some pretty mama starts breakin' down.

Now, you Saturday night women, you love to ape and clown.
Won't do nothing but tear a good man reputation down.

Well, I give my baby the ninety-nine degrees.
She jumped up and throwed a pistol down on me.

Well now, I can't start walking down the streets,
Some pretty woman start breakin' down with me.

4.NASTY DOGS AND FUNKY KINGS

Well, I knocked down on your door, baby,
to see if you were at home.

Your shade was down, there wasn't even a sound
but something told me you weren't alone.
What in the world can a nasty dog do
but try to get next to you?

Don't laugh 'cause it ain't funny.
Look how it happened to me.

It could happen to you, you could be a fool too
and it'd leave you in misery.
I guess there's nothin' more funky king can do
but to try to get next to you.

Mm, well.
