Well, I know I haven't paid my dues And I've poured out all my love in vain But if you haven't heard the news Well, I'm losing interest in playing the blues I'm still shaking, but I can't dust my broom And my arm grows numb while I strum And just when I thought there was nothing left to lose Well, I'm losing interest in playing the blues My money's gone, my car keys too My baby's gone and so are you Then I'm losing interest in playing the blues Well, the sun shines wherever my children are And my blood runs deep in their hearts And if they should ever happen to find you Please don't let them lose interest in playing the blues Please don't let them lose interest in playing the blues
