(Don Reid - Harold Reid)

I keep the radio on most all night long
And listen to the songs they play
Sometimes I hum, tap along with my thumb
Listen to the words they say.

And I have to admit those yesterday hits
Take me back a year or two
I get those 1953 Dear John
Honky Tonk Blues for you.
Get those 1953
Dear John Honky Tonk Blues.

And I need help when I hear No Help Wanted
Rememberin' where we first heard Lovesick Blues
Old songs make me wonder what you're doing
I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues.

Gonna play this song for
Rollin' John the Wild Side Of Life
It's Rolly Polly a golden oldie
For Carl and his brand new wife.

Well, it makes me feel sad but
It ain't half bad remembering the things I'd do
I get those 1953 Hey,
Joe Hop A Bop Blues for you.

Get those 1953 Hey
Joe Hop A Bop Blues for you.

And I need help when I hear No Help Wanted
Rememberin' where we first heard Lovesick Blues
Old songs make me wonder what you're doing
I get those 1953 Dear John Honky Tonk Blues...
