I'll never get out of these blues alive

No, I'll never, I'll never get out of these blues alive

Well he gone and left me

I don't know what I'll do the rest of my life



Drinking black coffee and smoking cigarettes

Drinking black coffee, yeah, and smoking cigarettes

I can't see no use to try



I'll never get out of these blues alive

No, I'll never, I'll never get out of these blues alive

He gone and left me

Says he'll never come back home



I'll never come out of these blues alive

No, I'll never, I'll never come out of these blues alive

He gone and left me

I don't know what I'll do the rest of my life



Working up a sweat all night long and jumping over my bed

(___) sweat all night long and jumping over my bed

I can't see no use to try



Well, I'll never, never come out of these blues alive

I'll never, never come out of these, out of these blues alive

You know I miss him

(___) to the day I die
