Paroles: Albert Collins. Deluxe Edition. But I Was Cool.
I always live by the, golden rule
Whatever happens, ha, don't blow your cool
You gotta have nerves of steel
And never show folks how you, honestly feel
I lived all my life this way, ha
For example, take yesterday
I breeze home happy bringin' her my pay
Her note read, so long savvy, I haven't gone away
An' I threw myself down across our empty bed
An' this is what I said
Ooo shhhhiiiii ooow ooow ooow
What? Oh what are you gonna do with me?
Ooo wow uh
But I was cool
So I, one for the roaded, at a all night bar
I wound up so loaded, I tore up my car
The judge threw the book at me
An' when I read, the sentence there, I said
Oow! Please oooow ooow, please I got to know, I got to know
What? what went wrong?
I don't underst, I oh a
But I was cool
So I said she's the only one, that I have to pay
And I found her an' pulled my gun, an' fired point blank
The shot whistled right past that woman's head
An' I killed my hound dog, dead
Oooooow, ruff ruff, rrr, rrr, rrr, rur, rur, rur
As they carried me away
I was overheard to say
Be cool, be cool, stay cool, be cool
Whatever happens, ha, don't blow your cool
You gotta have nerves of steel
And never show folks how you, honestly feel
I lived all my life this way, ha
For example, take yesterday
I breeze home happy bringin' her my pay
Her note read, so long savvy, I haven't gone away
An' I threw myself down across our empty bed
An' this is what I said
Ooo shhhhiiiii ooow ooow ooow
What? Oh what are you gonna do with me?
Ooo wow uh
But I was cool
So I, one for the roaded, at a all night bar
