Worried Down With The Blues

Lying here for hours

Can't get my eyes to close

Can't get one moment's peace

To save my dog-gone soul

I've been doin' more than drinkin'

Tryin' to ease my pain

Everywhere I go

Somebody speaks your name

Oh my friends keep on askin'

Boy what's wrong with you?

I say I'm worried

Worried down with the blues

Try to be a good man

Work my fingers to the bone

And you return the favor

By messing up my happy home

You played so many dirty tricks

Till I lost my faith in you

Now you want me to take you back

What's a poor man supposed to do?

Worried down with the blues

Oh, yes I am

Worried down with the blues

Oh, I feel like I was born to lose

Used to walk with pride with my head held high

Now I'm starin' down at my shoes

Yes I am worried

Worried down with the blues

You made me turn my back

On my very best friend

And when my back was turned

You were messin' around with him

I'd give up everything

To have you by my side

'Cause in the cold, cold night when I reach for you

I'm holdin' to my foolish pride

Worried down with the blues

Oh, yes I am

Worried down with the blues

Feel like I was born to lose

Used to walk with pride with my head held high

Now I'm starin' down at my shoes

Yes I am worried

Worried down with the blues, oh yeah
