I Ain't Got Nothin' But the Blues

Ain't got the change of a nickel

Ain't got no bounce in my shoes

Ain't go no fancy to tickle

I ain't got nothin' but the blues

Ain't got no coffee that's perkin'

Ain't got no winnings to lose

Ain't got a dream that is workin'

I ain't got nothin' but the blues

When trumpets flare up I keep my hair up

I just can't make it come down

Believe me pappy, I can't get happy

Since my ever-lovin' baby left town

Ain't got no rest in my slumbers

Ain't got no feelings to bruise

Ain't got no telephone numbers

I ain't got nothin' but the blues

I ain't got nothin' but the blues
