O yes, my Lord He will surely bring you peace O yes, my Lord He will surely bring you peace And this is nothing new It's just the same old blues And like a devil on my shoulder And nothing left to lose You can never break my heart Everything will fall apart And you can never save my soul I think it's time to let me go I keep on having this dream Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down And this is nothing new It's just the same old blues And this is nothing new It's just the same old blues Today I lost my future to the past I got nobody left, I'm going nowhere fast Never getting far away enough Like a shadow on the sidewalk I can't shake it off You can never change my mind I think I'm running out of time You can never save my soul I think it's time to let me go I keep on having this dream Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down My heart is down on its knees so I try, oh, I try But it's too late now There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down I keep on having this dream Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down My heart is down on its knees And no one is hearing me screaming There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down And this is nothing new It's just the same old blues And this is nothing new It's just the same old blues
