New Freedom Blues

(альбом: New Freedom Blues - 2018)

Starting my morning in the middle of the afternoon
Yesterday's coffee and a little smoke to get me through
Trying to get my day on track
Aw, first let me knock one back
'Til I'm all balled-up and pining at the thought of you

Thought it'd be best if we went our separate ways
So I cut you loose on a cold November day
And now I'm fighting back the tears
Reminiscing on our two good years
And these four walls feel like a coffin done already made

I got the new freedom blues
Either way I just can't win for losing
Seems like any path I choose
There's heartache up ahead, I'm a-going through it
And it's no fault but my own
That I'm stumbling and stoned
Barely hanging on
With new freedom blues

Rolling like a freight train, listen to my whistle wail
Sooner or later, you know buddy, I'm'a jump that rail
Well I can't seem to hit them brakes
And I might even up them stakes
Just pour me what you got, fill it up, and let's give it hell
Let's give 'em hell

I got the new freedom blues
Either way I just can't win for losing
Seems like any path I choose
There's heartache up ahead, I'm a-going through it
And it's no fault but my own
That I'm stumbling and stoned
Barely hanging on
With new freedom blues

Well I thought by now I'd be stepping out and moving on
I got some good time friends and they say they wanna hear my songs
If I saw you out on the street
Not giving a damn about me
Don't you know it'd cut me down to the bone

I got the new freedom blues
Either way I just can't win for losing
Seems like any path I choose
There's heartache up ahead, I'm a-going through it
And it's no fault but my own
That I'm stumbling and stoned
Barely hanging on
With new freedom blues
