Big Bill Broonzy


I was just sitting here wondering, what's my number in that old goldfish bowl?
Yeah, I was just sitting here wondering, what's my number in that old goldfish bowl?
And when I heard my number call,whoo Lord, I couldn't feel happy to save my soul.

Everywhere I go, I see that same old 158.
Yeah, everywhere I go, I see that same old 158.
I know I'm billed out, baby,whoo, Lord, Uncle [….?] said, Bill, don't be late.

I've got my questionnaire, and I've found that old number of mine.
Yes, I've got my questionnaire, and I've found that old number of mine.
Now, I guess I better start moving.
Whoo, baby, there ain't no need to cry.

Oh, you young men, I mean, come on and follow me.
Yes, all you young men, now come on and follow me.
Now, American soldiers went before.
Whoo, Lord, now, boys, why can't we?
