Blues Before Sunrise Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

Blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
Blues before sunrise, with tears standing in my eyes
It was a halo feeling, boy, I do despise


Nobody know what a shape I′m in
Nobody know what a shape I'm in
My wife had left me, left me for another man
Seven long years, Lord knows I tried
There are things I couldn′t get along with my wife

Oh, blues before sunrise, with tears standing in my eyes
A halo feeling, boy, I do despise, yes-yes

I lost everything, everything I ever owned
I lost everything, everything I ever owned
For seven long years, seven long years, I tried to get along

Blues before sunrise, with tears in my eyes
Ah, tears down in my eyes-
