Some days I have to give right in to the blues
|
Despite how I try to keep fightin'
|
It's a sure shot I'm going to lose
|
And I'll tell you why
|
You think I'm crazy
|
It's such a sad composition
|
But can you blame me
|
For what's been causing my bad disposition?
|
Ain't nothing new with my blue situation
|
And nothing's fine, it's just a minor variation
|
|
When troubles want to find me, I ain't hard to find
|
They know where I am
|
Like a hungry pack of wolves when it's feeding time
|
They tear up a man
|
And it's a strange thing
|
"Cause now it don't really matter
|
More of the same thing
|
Don't even hurt it's been part of the pattern
|
But still in all it's a small consulation
|
I just define it as a minor variation
|
|
Ain't now way to fight 'em darling
|
Ain't no way around 'em baby
|
Ain't now way to take 'em honey
|
Nowhere to hide and believe me I've tried to shake 'em
|
|
I'm getting to the point where I don't feel the pain
|
And I've had enough
|
I'm ready for the next time it hits me again
|
"Cause I've gotten tough
|
It doesn't faze me
|
And now I've made my decision
|
I may be crazy
|
It's not as though I don't know that condition
|
Until I'm through with this blue situation
|
Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation
|
|
Ain't nobody's business, baby
|
Ain't nobody's worry darlin'
|
Ain't nobody's problem
|
No way to win when you've already been forgotten
|
|
And it's a strange thing
|
"Cause now it don't really matter
|
More of the same thing
|
Don't even hurt, it's a part of the pattern
|
Until I'm through with this blue situation
|
Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation
|
