You know my life would be easy
If people would leave me alone
Stop steppin on my fingers
That Ive been workin to the bone
Maybe then I could get back with you
God damn I hate the blues
Ive tried to put em in a bottle
Some people pu em in their arm
Either way theyre 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 Id made
I never thought youd stay away
Leaving me to take the blame
I never thought youde follow through
God damn I hate the blues
