I've got the blood bank blues I didn't pay my dues They shut me off
I've got the blood bank blues How could they refuse To give me a pint or two?
I'm sick and tired of being treated so All I really need is a little vivo
I've got the blues
Those ol' blood bank blues
When the red corpuscles meet with the white It makes for a wonderful treat You can keep your filet and your top of the rump Blood is just my meat
All these delivery banks Close in the afternoon But that is much too soon
But for the vampire's trust It is a midnight must When the moon is full and blue All because it Must we come after ten?
I've got the blues Those ol' blood bank blues
Let me in, we-oo
I'm dry as a bone Go away or I'll show you wings
The reason that my blues didn't start Boris put a stake in my girl's heart If I don't get it out before the sun is high How will I ever fly?
I've really got the shakes My wing membrane aches How will I make it tonight?
Who's the boss Of the local Red Cross? I'd like to know his name If he just doesn't give a heck I'll put the bite to his neck And lose my blues
Those ol' blood bank blues [I've got the blood bank blues Let me in, we-oo [I got the blood bank blues I'm dry as a bone We-oo, we-oo Darling, I said we-oo Doesn't anyone know popular music?
