lyrics

On the surface we may seem
An unlikely combination
But I see us as a team
Mutual appreciation
I can see beyond the rough
And ready outer you
And you've already seen enough
To know my words are true

So hang around and listen for a while
I'm sure I'll raise a glimmer of a smile

Well I woke up this morning - I had some real bad news
Well I woke up this morning - I had some real bad news
There was darkness all around me - I had the Hessian Blues
There was darkness all around me - I so had those Hessian Blues

When I woke up this morning - all I saw was black
When I woke up this morning - all I saw was black
And the man done told me - you been sleeping in a sack
And the man done told me - that I had been sleeping in a sack

But I've seen the light - I'm singing what I choose
Yeah I've seen the light - I got nothin' to lose
I'm as happy as a sandboy - don't use those Hessian Blues
I'm as happy as a sandboy - don't use those Hessian Blues
