Federation Blues

by Slim Gaillard & His Internationally Famous Orchestra

on 1947-1951 (2002)

You may play an instrument and think that you a killer
But you still ain't got nowhere till you see J.C. Petrillo
Got the federation blues, ruin it
The federation Blues
And federation blues, blue as I can be

You may you join a fee and then you go see the Doolsman
If you raise from the federation you see Lee O Klooseman
The federation Blues
The federation Blues
Got the federation blues, ruin it
Blue as I can be

You must get the skill and weather more achiever
But when you pay your tax it goes to hire a Jay Stever
The federation Blues
The federation Blues
The federation Blues of volunteers
Blues as I can be, oh ruin it

You may own a Cadillac Buick a ___ or even a Ford
But when you break the rules, you need big Zaggiy ______
I've got the federation blues, ruin it
The federation Blues
And federation blues, blue as I can be

Blow blow blow

Now it would take too long to name all of the locals
So we'll finish up with a song with instrument and vocals
The federation Blues
The federation Blues
You may think you're a killer diller but you must see J.C. Petrillo
