I've got the blues before sunrise
Tears standing in my eyes
I've got the blues before sunrise
Tears standing in my eyes
It's such a miserable feeling
A feeling I do despise
Seems like everybody
Everybody's down on me
Seems like everybody
Everyone's down on poor me
I'm gonna cast my troubles
Down in the deep blue sea
Today has been such a long and lonesome day
Today has been a long and lonesome day
I've been sitting here and thinking
With my mind a million miles away
Blues started rolling
And stopped in my front door
Blues started rolling
And stopped in my front door
I'm gonna change my way of living
Ain't gonna worry no more
I love my baby
But my baby won't be here
I love my baby
But my baby won't be here
I'm gonna buy me a hot shooting pistol
And put her in her grave
