No-Mail Blues

well it's three o'clock in the mawnin, babe,
  i can't send and i can't receive
yeah it's three o'clock in the mawnin,
  i can't send and i can't receive
if IO don't get their shit together
  you know it's gonna make me grieve

now you sees i need my email
  like a hound dog need his bone
yeaaaaaah you know i needs my email
  like that old hound dog need his bone
ain't had no 'lectronic missives
  since io-dot-com's been gone

well lawd i called the help desk
  but a machine done took my call
i say i tried to call the help desk
  but a machine it done took my call
machine say all lines be busy
  and i can't get no help at all

now my eyes is startin' to twitch, babe,
  and the moon is big and round
yeaaaaaaah, my eyes is startin' to twitch, twitch, twitch, babe,
  that old moon just keeps shinin' down
outside the rain be fallin'
  pitter patter to the ground

well it's three o'clock in the mawnin, child,
  i can't send and i can't receive
yeah it's three o'clock in the mawnin,
  i can't send and i can't receive
the clock tick-tock so slow, babe,
  when there ain't no mail to read

youngblood, singin' the no-mail blues
