Story of the Blues

My baby she's left me

My baby she's gone

My sweet little angel

Spread her wings and flown

I think of a reason

For going on

From this day, I will play the blues

She said it was over

This time it's the end

Bad luck and trouble

Gonna be my only friend

I still can't believe it

After all we've been through

Everyday, I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about

It's a pain you can't live with

It's a woman you can't live without

She came from chicago

She read me the news

In the headlines was a story of the blues

They say a broken heart

Can always mend

That time is the healer

The sadness will end

Well, I've done so much crying

When will I laugh again

Till that day, I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about

It's a pain you can't live with

It's a woman you can't live wihout

Could have cried me a river

When they told me the news

On that day was a story of the blues
