The Blues Are My Friend

(Instrumental)

The blues, they’ve got me baby, they got me wrapped around their finger so tight.
I said the blues, have got me baby, and ya know it just ain't right.
But the blues, are my friend honey, they keep me warm all through the night.

When I'm blue, I'm in control babe, I know just where it is all gonna go.
Ah when I'm blue, it's all the same babe, there ain't nothin', ah nothin’ else to know.
The blues, are my friend babe, I'm steppin' out, ah in that old familiar show. Ha, ha, ya!

(Instrumental)

Ah the blues, wrap around me honey, like a warm, sweet lover at night.
Ya know the blues, they share my secrets babe, ah them and me we never fight.
Oh the blues, take me away babe, from sundown until I see the light. Ho!

Some folks, they need a friend babe, ah just to make them feel OK.
Their glass, it's half full honey, they just seem to need to have to live that way.
Oh but me, I need the blues babe, and feel the darkness all through the day. Ho!

(Instrumental x 2)

So don't ya worry 'bout me baby, cause I got everything I need. Ha!
I'm ridin' high but feelin' low, ho, on that old familiar steed.
Cause the blues, won't let me down babe, they cut me up but I don't bleed.
Ha Ya!

(Instrumental)

Cause the blues, won't let me down babe, they cut me up but I don't bleed.
Oh Ya!
