Blues so bad I can’t take ’em
Blues so bad I can’t shake ’em
Blues so bad that I hurry
To find a place just to worry
I try to drown ’em in drink
But what do you think
The blues can swim
They don’t sink
Blues so bad I don’t try
Blues so bad I wanna die
Blues so bad that I roll ’em
Blues so bad that I told ’em
My favorite joke
I try to give ’em a toke
But the blues don’t burn
They just smoke
Blues so bad I look slouchy
Blues so bad I feel grouchy
Blues so bad I ain’t even
The blues so bad that I’m leavin’
I try to get ’em to blow
But what do you know
The blues still come
They don’t go
