Singing the Blues
I woke up this morning
din want to get out of bed,
Still tired and yawning
there's a ringing in my head.
Rubbed my eyes, rolled over
I' just got to stop and think,
Dis won't get me nowhere
all this Moonshine that I drink.
My telephone's ringing
I've been ducking everyone,
So many I'm owing
dis life sure aint no moe fun.
Made my share of mistakes
don't need to hear no one's views,
I see my life crumbling
and here I am singing the blues.
Got to get out this mess
my mamma din raise no fools
and when I get over
aint go be singing no blues
No I aint go be singing no blues,
Oh Yeaaaa!!!!
