Ev'ry night I go to sleep, The blues fall down like rain. Ev'ry night I go to sleep, The blues fall down like rain. Takin' pills and cheap whiskey, Just to try to ease the pain. It's hard to gamble, When you lose every bet. Hard to save money, When you're twenty years in debt. The blues is fallin' Fallin down on me like rain. I'm gonna good shotgun, now, good people, And disconnect my brain. I made some mistakes, Had some bad breaks, Now my mind don't work, And my whole body aches. The blues is fallin' Fallin down on me like rain. My life is like water, Just swirlin' down the drain. Well, I tried standin' up, Keep on fallin' down. Tried standin' up, Keep on fallin' down. Everywhere I go-- The blues is all around. Transcribed by Rich Kulawiec, rsk@ecn.purdue.edu
