Blues For Life

(álbum: You're For Me - 1962)

Well, I just got over one case of the blues
Now I've got another one that I can't lose
The pain of being lonely cuts like a knife
Looks like I'm gonna have the blues for life.

Yeah, the sun comes up and the sun goes down
The mean old blues will keep on coming around
Looks like they're moving right in to stay
I'm gonna be with 'em till my dying day,

Well, I'm up in the creek and I got no ore
Blues keep coming round more and more
Don't know how it feels but it's been nice
Not to have to worry bout the blues for life.

[Instrumental]

Well, the guy next door really got it made
Stays every day laying in the shade
Got no troubles nor grief nor strife
Never has to worry /bout the blues for life.

Yeah the sun comes up and the sun goes down
The mean old blues will keep on coming around
Looks like they're moving right in to stay
I'm gonna be with 'em till my dying day.

Well, I'm up in the creek and I got no ore
Blues keep coming round more and more
Don't know how it feels but it's been nice
Not to have to worry bout the blues for life...
