King Blues

It started in April, continued through May, darkness had caught me and in there I would stay

Cold sweat and heartbeats, way to fast, started to worry about how long I would last.

No matter what I tried, I just kept falling into the same old blues

Tried your prescriptions, drank my own shine, hell I even had your bitter potato wine

Bought me a Volvo, took it for a spin, but I ended up at the bottom of the sea

No matter what I tried, I just kept falling into the same old blues

Rise and shine, the doctor said, you must be the luckiest man that I've ever met

Now pick up your mojo and do what you should, life's too short and I guess I finally understood

No more bad luck, now I'm gonna pick myself up from this evil king blues
