Give Me The Blues

Give me the blues

Let them roll on me

Through the storm, through the rain,

I'll rise again from this soul's refrain.

I'm walkin' down this lonesome road,

With shadows heavy, a heart like stone,

The pain, it lingers, just like the smoke,

Life's a gamble, but I lost the bet long ago.

This darkness, it won’t let me go.

Gimme the blues, let 'em roll on me,

Singin’ my heart out, wild and free,

Through the storm, through the rain,

I'll rise again from this soul's refrain.

Every tear I've shed's a silent scream,

In the night, I chase a broken dream,

The bottle whispers sweet lies of peace,

But the blues, they just never cease.

Oh, the sorrow runs deep, it shows.

Gimme the blues, let 'em roll on me,

Singin’ my heart out, wild and free,

Through the storm, through the rain,

I'll rise again from this soul's refrain.

So here I stand, still holding on,

With the blues as my only song.
