00:00Woke up this morning, the sun don't shine, no birds are singing, just troubles on my mind.
00:20With a heavy heart, I grab my old guitar, strummin' out a rhythm, but it's never gone too far.
00:32I got the blues, it's deep in my soul. Oh, Lord, I got the blues, and it's takin' its toll.
00:48I got the blues, oh, Lord, I got the blues. Every note I play is just bad news. With every pluck of the strings, my troubles unfold.
01:07I got the blues, oh, Lord, that's the story I told. The whiskey ain't workin', it ain't drownin' my pain. Each glass I raise, it just entertains the rain.
01:27Down by the river, where the willow's been low. I sit in silence, listenin' to the pain flow.
01:39Time moves slowly when sorrow's your friend. I got the blues, oh, Lord, will it ever end?
01:55I got the blues, oh, Lord, I got the blues. Every note I play is just bad news. With every pluck of the strings, my troubles unfold.
02:14I got the blues, oh, Lord, that's the story I told.
02:21The moonlight whispers secrets of old dreams. Where love once blossomed, now it only seems.
02:47But those sweet memories play in my head. Each note a reminder of the love that I dread.
02:59So I pick and I strum my heartache tonight. Hopin' one sweet song can make everything right.
03:17So if you hear me playin' down by the tracks. Know that these blues got me holdin' on to the past. With each passing moment, I'm tryin' to break free.
03:36But the sadness lingers like a shadow on me. I got the blues, oh, Lord, I got the blues. Every note I play is just bad news.
03:56With every pluck of the strings, my troubles unfold. I got the blues, oh, Lord, that's the story I told.
04:09So here I am, playin' to the stars above. With a heart full of sorrow, but a soul full of love.
04:20Oh, Lord, I got the blues, oh, Lord, I got the blues, oh, Lord, I'm singin' my tune. With a fiddle in my hand, I'll be howlin' at the moon.
04:47Oh, Lord, I got the blues, oh, Lord, I got the blues with my mind.
04:52Oh, Lord, I got the blues. Oh, Lord, I'm singin' my tune.
04:56Oh, Lord, I got the blues. Oh, Lord. I got the blues with my prideady.
05:03For a large amount of love, I don't even nerve, I get the blues. Why don't I spoil my heartache today?
05:11You
