I Hate The Blues

You Know My Life Would Be Easy
If People Would Leave Me Alone
Stop Steppin' On My Fingers
That I've Been Working to the Bone
Maybe Then I Could Come Back to You
God Damn I Hate the Blues

I've Tried to Put Them I a Bottle
Some People Put' em in Their Arm
Either Way They're Gonna Kill You
Slowly Eat Away Your Heart
If Only I Could Stop the Thought of You
God Damn I Hate the Blues

I Never Learned to Listen
To the Promises I Made
I Never Thought You'd Stay Away
Leaving Me to Take the Blame
I Never Thought You'd Follow Through
God Damn I Hate the Blues
