Well you wake up in the morning
and your feeling kinda lonely
and nothing seems to work
like it should
and your paying more for air
know one never seems to care
I got big old hole in my shoe
well my lady left today
and I think she's gone to stay
and my buddy don't seem to be home
and my car and got no brakes
and the cops are in your face
and this women said that you are the one
Don't you know that's the blues
from the bottom to the top
every race every creed
every color every drop
that's the blues from sea to sea
continent country city and me
While you're at the job working
and your boss is email lurking
and your getting less for doing more
there your training your new boss
he get's the money and the car
you get nothing that's all
now your sleeping in the streets
nothing good for you to eat
and your prays are too small
to be answered
old friends pass you
all they ever say is hi
and make you the dinner conversation
don't you know that's the blues
from the bottom to the top
every race every creed every drop
that's the blues from sea to sea
continent country city and me
well folks don't want you around
cause your black white or brown
and your message is all whacked and insane
don't be cruel just be kind
show me yours and I'll show you mine
or watch this world come to an end
well your out to spread the blues
and you hear the word old news
cause your message has already been said
but old news is sometime new
that why we got the blues
so thanks to the old blues singer
don't you know that's the blues
from the bottom to the top
every race every creed
every color every drop
that's the blues from sea to sea
continent country city and me
