Blues for Life Songtext
von Buck Owens

Well, I just got over one case of the blues
Now I′ve got another one that I can't lose
The pain of being lonely cuts like a knife
Looks like I′m gonna have the blues for life

Yeah, the sun comes up and the sun goes down
The mean old blues'll keep on coming around
Looks like they're moving right in to stay
You′re gonna be with me ′til my dying day


Well, I'm up in the creek and I got no ore
The blues keep coming ′round more and more
Don't know how it feels, but it′s been nice
Not to have to worry 'bout the blues for life

Well, the guy next door really got it made
Spends every day laying in the shade
Got no troubles nor grief nor strife
Never has to worry ′bout the blues for life

Yeah, the sun comes up and the sun goes down
The mean old blues'll keep on coming around
Looks like they're moving right in to stay
You′re gonna be with me ′til my dying day


Well, I'm up in the creek and I got no ore
The blues keep coming ′round more and more
Don't know how it feels, but it′s been nice
Not to have to worry 'bout the blues for life
