You know my life would be easy
If people would leave me alone
Stop steppin` on my fingers
That I`ve been workin` to the bone
Maybe then I could get back with you
God damn I hate the blues
I`ve tried to put `em in a bottle
Some people pu `em in their arm
Either way they`re gonna kill you
Slowly eat away your heart
If only I could stop the thought of you
God damn I hate the blues
I never learned to listen
To the promises I`d made
I never thought you`d stay away
Leaving me to take the blame
I never thought you`de follow through
God damn I hate the blues
