Every night I go to sleep, the blues fall down like rain Every night I go to sleep, the blues fall down like rain Takin' pills and cheap whiskey, just to try to ease the pain It's hard to gamble when you lose every bet Hard to save money when you're twenty years in debt The blues is fallin', fallin' down on me like rain I'm gonna take a shotgun now, people, and disconnect my brain I made some mistakes, had some bad breaks Now my mind don't work and my whole body aches Blues is fallin', fallin' down on me like rain My life is like water, just swirlin' down the drain Tried standin' up, keep on fallin' down Tried standin' up, keep on fallin' down Everywhere I go the blues is all around
