Sick Man Blues Songtext
von Bobby Long

The darkness hides your eyes
Though it′s not for me to tell
You never treat me kind, you think that I'm unwell
It′s such a shame, it's such a shame

You tried to give me up and flirted with my time
I guess you broke the promise you made
Somewhere down the line
Oh you're a struggle, oh you′re a struggle

You paid for all my pills that left me in the past
You were a good girl, honey
You just couldn′t make it last

And your love carries the rhinestone of a, of a plague
So bear in mind the lives you could save
'Cause I′m bound to walk the darkness again
And I'm bound to walk the darkness again
I know, I know


And I know I′m not that easy to live with day to day
If you painted your own picture
Then I'd let you have your say
Yeah I′m a sinner, I'm a sinner

But my love it sits untainted to the rigors of your stare
There ain't anybody like you and the fairness of your hair
Leaves me stranded, it leaves me stranded

This life it′s too long, too long for me to keep
You should bear that in mind and try the pain you reap
That you reap now, that you reap

And your love carries the rhinestone of a, of a plague
So bear in mind the lives you could save
Your love carries the rhinestone of a, of a plague
So bear in mind the lives you could save, that you could save

′Cause I'm bound to walk the darkness again
And I′m bound to walk the darkness again
And I'm bound to walk the darkness again
