Nothing But The Blues

My mama left when I was six years old and I've got nothing but the blues

My father said son you're on your own and I've got nothing but the blues

You know they kicked me out of my high school and I've got nothing but the blues

Lost all my money trying to shoot some pool and I've got nothing about the blues

And I'm fading, waiting around for someone to save me

And I'm fading, waiting around for someone to save me, alright

I had a girl and she broke my heart and I've got nothing but the blues

I tried to leave but my car won't start and I got nothing but the blues

I couldn't drive so I lost my job

And I  got nothing but the blues

Cops broke in and they shot my dog and I got nothing but the blues

And I'm fading, waiting around for someone to save me

Oh And I'm fading, waiting around won't somebody save me, alright!

Oh and I'm fading, waiting around and waiting around for someone

come and save me. Waiting around, won't somebody save me, alright!
