I got the blues, babe
Got those old Istanbul blues
Said yeah, I got the blues, babe
Got those old Istanbul blues
Thirty years in Turkey, babe
Ain't got nothing left to lose
Well, I was busted at the bottom
With two keys in my shoes, yeah
Said I was busted at the bottom, babe
With two keys in my shoes, yeah
And they gave me thirty years, babe
To learn the Istanbul blues
I said, Lord, now save me
Please, save me from this pain
I said, Lord, now save me
Come and save me from this pain, yeah
Well, come set me free, sweet Jesus
Come on, save me from this pain, ooh-yeah

Got those old Istanbul blues, yeah
I said yeah, I got the blues
Got those old Istanbul blues
They gave me thirty years in Turkey, babe
Ain't got nothing left to lose
