Blue Mood — текст песни (Jerry Jeff Walker)

Jerry Jeff Walker

Well I`d already turned the lights out, almost gone to sleep
When a little voice inside me asked, are you all you thought you`d be?

This late night singing`s just like dreaming,
More like talking to yourself
I don`t find many answers, but the music seems to help.

It`s just a blue mood I`m in, comes every now and then
It`s the kind that softly knocks you down to your knees
But it`s gonna pass in time, in a day or two, well, I`ll be fine
Just tonight those blues got the last ol` laugh on me.

I heard they got Suzanna`s money, like they stole Fred Neilson`s mind
Well, I guess that reinforces music`s all we`ve got sometimes,
Life`s mostly handshakes and divorces,
True blue friends that bend and sway
While the price of living honestly comes harder every day.

Chorus

Yeah, I`ve been recovering from surgery, yea, they took a piece of me,
Well, I`ve been cut much deeper, I always got back on my feet,
But with the passing of John Henry, then the loss of Stevie Ray;
I see the light of our own time get dimmer every day.

Chorus
