These blues

Tomorrow  
They say theres  
always tomorrow today
but you rarely hear theeem saaaaay  
that it could bee
yoouur last daay..
 
I've never been  
that caddilac kiiind,  
it's been hard enough
 just tryiiing
 to walk that linnnne
N when that devil  would come a knocking at myyyyyyyyy dooor  
I wouldnt have to feel these blues any
Mooore,  
 
running toward the night
Dont give a daaam  
if its wrong or right
 
As long as theres nooo
way to wiin  
ill sing my blues again  
and agaaaiin
 
 
I was born  
to do what I do,  
n if you knew me
 then buddy
 you'd know it too  
 
My life is cut up  
of
 nothing  
but the blues
 the heavenly dream ive been dooownn
along with all the dam  
hell iiii've
 found  
 
I Keep playing  
nothing
 but my truuth
 
Sorry if I wont help it
 ive learned to just accept it
 
 Don't take it from me
 just listen  
to these blues
 
I never knew the man
 they called my daddyyy.
 He didnt live to see me,
      lord knows  
 he would have changed  things  
     had he,
 
N my momma never stayed around,  
left us babies alone
 while out running the town.
Had my brother die  
Right by my side
 when we were
We were off at war...  
Dont matter which one;  
Ive lost him and so
 many more..
 
Wish i could lie and say  
none of it is true,  
but you see its my life and  
its cut up of  
nothing
 
Nothing but
 these blues.  
 
I was born
 to do what I do
, n if u knew me
 then buddy
 youd know it too  
My life is cut up of nothing
 but these blues
 the heavenly dream
 ive been down  
along with all of the dam  
hell ive found
I Keep playing
 nothing  
but my truth
 
Sorry if I can't help it
Ive learned just how to accept it
 
 Don't take it from me  
just listen to these blues
    
Found me a woman.
 thought i had love,  
she was an angel sent down
 from heaven above,  
she took everything  
and every penny I had,  
yeah that woman  
sure done mee  
soo bad....
I thought god  
sent her down to me ,
 now ive come to knoooww,
When I said helloooo
She was only on her way  
to down beloooww
Got me a job  
with a traveling baand  
Just Couldnt shoot straight
 without a steady hand,
Got lost in the liquooor
I should of snapped tooo
a little quicker
 
got the boooot  
and traveled some more
Shoot man I walked this
 journey  
from shore to shore  
And now all I got is how
that I know now  
there just aint no
 cure
For these blues  
in my soul,  
and that I CAN BE SURE,  
that for the rest of my day
 i keep paying my toll,
 and  continue to rock and roll
my
 own way
 
I was born
 to do what I do
, n if u knew me
 
 then buddy
 youd know it too  
 
My life is cut up of nothing
 but these blues
 the heavenly dream
 ive been down  
along with all of the dam  
hell ive found
I Keep playing
 nothing  
but my truth
 
Sorry if I can't help it.....
Ive learned how to accept it......
 
 Don't take it from me  
just listen to these blues!
