The Blues

(album: Mink Shmink - 1989)

The blues... the blues ain't...
The blues ain't nothing...
The blues ain't nothing but a cold grey day
And all night long it stays that way

Ain't enough to leave you alone
Ain't nothing you'd want to call your own
Ain't something with enough sense to get up and go
Ain't nothing, like nothing... I know

The blues... the blues don't...
The blues don't know...
The blues don't know nobody has a fire
And ain't been nowhere
Where she's been welcomed back again
No... ugly... mean blues

The blues ain't nothin but your singing rhyme
The blues ain't nothing but a dark crowd marching time
The blues is a one way ticket
From your your love to nowhere
The blues ain't nothing but a dark grey veil
Ready to wear

Cying time
Steals most like dying
The blues ain't nothing...
The blues ain't
