Robert Earl Keen
Goin' Nowhere Blues

In the corner of the barroom
Lives the ghost of Langston Hughes
He's takin' notes and smokin' cigarettes
Sippin' slowly on his booze
Got them goin' nowhere blues

And on the stage beneath the spotlight
Woody Guthrie sings the news
He's always ready for the good fight
Never thinkin' that he'll lose
Got them goin' nowhere blues

Through the back way in the alley
Sellin' all you should refuse
Looks like Jane has finally given in
Hey, what the hell it ain't no use
Got them goin' nowhere blues

Out the front around the corner
Martin Luther shines your shoes
He's preachin' justice and equality
I guess Martin's payin' dues
He's got them goin' nowhere blues

On the other side it's a free ride
You've got money you can burn
When the ground shakes and the earth breaks
Which way you gonna turn?
Are you ever gonna learn?

In the poolroom on the table
Swillin' wine and smashin' cues
They locked him up last night for fighting
Cesar Chavez blew a fuse
He's got them goin' nowhere blues

All the members of the union
All the farm and labor crews
They used to be meet here by the dozens
They disappeared in ones and twos
Got them goin' nowhere blues

So you wonder why they come here
They come here to look for clues
Passin' time until they live again
To fight these going nowhere views
Leave these goin' nowhere blues
To fight these goin' nowhere views


Mirror lyrics:

To fight these goin' nowhere views
Leave these goin' nowhere blues
To fight these going nowhere views
Passin' time until they live again
They come here to look for clues
So you wonder why they come here

Got them goin' nowhere blues
They disappeared in ones and twos
They used to be meet here by the dozens
All the farm and labor crews
All the members of the union

He's got them goin' nowhere blues
Cesar Chavez blew a fuse
They locked him up last night for fighting
Swillin' wine and smashin' cues
In the poolroom on the table

Are you ever gonna learn?
Which way you gonna turn?
When the ground shakes and the earth breaks
You've got money you can burn
On the other side it's a free ride

He's got them goin' nowhere blues
I guess Martin's payin' dues
He's preachin' justice and equality
Martin Luther shines your shoes
Out the front around the corner

Got them goin' nowhere blues
Hey, what the hell it ain't no use
Looks like Jane has finally given in
Sellin' all you should refuse
Through the back way in the alley

Got them goin' nowhere blues
Never thinkin' that he'll lose
He's always ready for the good fight
Woody Guthrie sings the news
And on the stage beneath the spotlight

Got them goin' nowhere blues
Sippin' slowly on his booze
He's takin' notes and smokin' cigarettes
Lives the ghost of Langston Hughes
In the corner of the barroom
