There's a party going on on the other side of town Tonight I just can't make it your mem'ry's got me down I've tried hard to forget you with women time and booze It must be time to give in to the blues What's the need in laughing then go off and hide to cry My heart still knows the way I feel even though I live a lie The more I try to find myself the more I get confused Guess I'll have to give in to the blues
I take another out and I try to paint the town We take in all the nightspots lay all my money down But ev'ry time I look at her she just looks more like you Yes it's my time to give in to the blues What's the need in laughing then go off and hide to cry My heart still knows the way I feel even though I live a lie The more I try to find myself the more I get confused Guess I'll have to give in to the blues
