Do You Read Me (05:21)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
Do you read me, well won't you tell me?
If you read me, then please believe me, when I say,
Yes I've been waiting, seems like forever.

I've been waiting, my situation ain't got much better,
Well I've been waiting, the situation don't get much better.

You don't do unto others as you do unto me,
Well, why am I the only one that treats you this way?
Well, you got that something and it's hard to specify,
I can't diagnose that look in your eyes.

You don't do unto me, like I know you could,
Why am I the only one who's misunderstood?


Ashes to ashes, and it's dust to dust,
Well, if you won't take me then I guess the devil must.

I've been hurting, my hearts been burning,
I've been hurting, but I've been learning, just the same.

Well, I've been waiting, seems like forever,
While I've been waiting,
My situation ain't got much better,
While I've been waiting,
The situation ain't got much better,
I've been waiting,
The situation don't get much better.

Moonchild (04:47)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
You are a moonchild and pretty soon child
I've got that feeling
That I'm gonna make you smile forever
If I can.
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan
You are a blue child, forever true child
You know I'll try to paint the skies blue forever
If I can.
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan.

Tell me why you look so sad,
Time slips by like grains of sand
Just put your future in my hands

You are a moonchild and pretty soon child
I've got the feelin I'm gonna make you smile forever.
If I can.

Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan,
Just give me a smile and I'll show you my plan,
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan

Calling Card (05:26)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
Well the rain ain't fussy 'bout where it lands
It'll find you hiding no matter where you stand
It's gonna rain brother and it's gonna rain hard
When the blues come calling with his calling card

It ain't too funny when you'd rather die
Ain't no pleasure when that girl don't reply
To your lovesick letter that you wrote in tears
About feeling so bad for a million years

Watch out brother, be alert
Whatever you do, don't show that hurt, don't show that hurt

It ain't so funny when you'd rather die
Ain't no pleasure when that girl don't reply
To your love-sick letter that you wrote in tears
About feeling so bad for a million years


I've been so subjected, I've been so distresses
Come back baby, to clean up this mess, clean up this mess

It ain't too funny when you'd rather die
Ain't no pleasure when that girl don't reply
To your lovesick letter that you wrote in tears
About feeling so bad for a million years

Well the rain ain't fussy 'bout where it falls
It rains on one just like it rains on all
But when it falls brother, it's gonna rain hard
When the blues come calling with his calling card

Watch out brother, be alert
Whatever you do, don't show that hurt, don't show that hurt

Secret Agent (05:47)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
My baby`s got a secret agent,
To watch me like a hawk,
Well, my baby`s got a secret agent,
To watch me like a hawk.

He knows each time I leave my house,
He knows each time I move around.

Ow....

Secret agent, won`t you please take my advice?
Secret agent, secret agent,
Won`t you please heed my advice?
You crossed me once, don`t cross me twice,
I`m gonna cut you down to size.

I`ll make that man,
Turn in his badge in the morning,
I slip around,
But I`m too quick to catch in the morning,
I`ll make that man turn in his badge,
I`ll slip around him, I`m too quick to catch,
No jealous woman is gonna keep tabs on me.

Well, she`s got that secret agent,
And he`s breathing down my spine,
Yea, she`s got that secret agent,
And he`s breathing down my spine,
He must like working overtime,
I think I`m always hard to find.

Oh, secret agent, secret agent,
Gonna have a showdown before long,
Won`t you listen, secret agent,
We`re gonna have a showdown before long.

I know you pack a forty-four,
I hope you know just what it`s for,
I know you pack a forty-four,
I hope you know just what it`s for,
Just keep your shadow from my door.

Oww..........

Jackknife Beat (07:06)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
Shake it baby, before it shakes you
Get it baby and let it take you
Where you want it to

Don't you maybe
That just won't do
You say I'm crazy
But this music's got me feelin' good

I know it's fever
I don't need a cure
You're the doctor
I'm your patient that's for sure
I'm your patient that's for sure

Hear it baby
Sneaking on through
You'll know it baby
When that music gets inside your shoes

It's too late baby, what do you do
Hear it baby
Hear it baby
Sneaking on through
You'll know it baby
When that music gets inside your shoes
You know it's creeping up on you

Scat



We got that Jackknife beat
A killer of a back beat
Sounds like an ice truck
Rolling down a back street

Yeah, we got the whole thing going like a pneumatic drill
The guitar man's playing like he's fit to kill, oh yeah

We got that Jackknife beat
A killer of a back beat
Siphon off the syrup
Let it take a back seat
What's cooking in the kitchen has boiled to the brim
What's brewing in the basement
Is bound to over spill, oh yeah

Shake it baby, before it shakes you
Get it baby and let it take you
Where you want it to

Don't you maybe
That just won't do
You say I'm crazy
But this music's got me feelin' good

Got a fever
I don't need a cure
You're the doctor
I'm your patient that's for sure
I'm your patient that's for sure

Barley and Grape Rag (03:36)
Rory Gallagher • Calling Card
Well don't care if I get arrested
'Cos tonight they'll need more than a ball and chain
I don't care whose interested,
I'm coming into town just the same

I've been alone, I've been feeling blue,
I think I need a little drink or two,
Be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the dices roll till dawn?

My baby's done me wrong you must have guessed it,
My heart's slow I think it must be told
That I don't want ot know where East or West is
'Cos pretty soon I won't feel the cold.

When I'm walking down mainstreet, feeling no pain
Along comes a cop, he can take my name
And explain to me what a federal case is,
I'm mixing the barley with the grape again

Bright city lights, make me feel alright,
I'm right or wrong and tomorrow never comes.
I don't care if i get investigated
And the city fathers they all black my name.
I'm pretty sure you can smell the traces,
For tomorrow morning, I'll take all the blame.

I've been feeling bad and feeling blue
I think I need a little whiskey or two,
God, brother, you look like you could do with it too
(That's true)
Tonight I'll sleep on a walking-cane

I don't care if I get arrested
Cause tonight they'll need more than a ball and chain.
I don't care whose interested,
I'm coming into town just the same

I've been feeling alone and I've been feeling blue.
I think I need a little drink or two.
Be my friend, tell me where the place is
Where the whiskey flows and the dices roll till dawn
