That's What the Blues is All About

歌詞

Oh you come home one eve'nin' To nothin' but the four walls And then ya find your phone been disconnected You can't even make no call Ya hung out for your baby, oh, an'she's not there You look in the closet, buddy, an'you find it's all bare Oh, that's what the blues is people That's what the blues is all about Well that's a hard pill to have to swallow, um! When you find what the blues is all about Now listen to this: I went out to my backyard Ya know I whistled for my dog (3 whistle sounds) He ran up under the house, people Like he didn't even know me at all Now I hadn't fed him in two or three days An' he was lookin' kinda thin Oh, when your dog turn his back on ya, buddy You know ya haven't even got a friend That's the blues, people That's what the blues is all about Oh it's a hard pill to swallow, um! When ya find out what the blues is all about Oh, look out! Uh! Oh no! I think I got 'em! I went out to my mail box I got a bunch-a bills that I can't pay I guess my wife been out shoppin' again While I been at work all day I see the man comin' with his tools Now is he gonna cut off my water? You know they got my gas yesterday An' they comin' right back for the lines tomorrow Ah, that's what the blues is people That's what the blues is all about Well that's a hard pill to swallow, buddy Oh, when you find out what the blues is all about
