Just got fired from a good paid job Making my way home for the chicken and corn on the cob I'm worried about how I tell my wife Tellin' her ain't gonna be nothing nice Thinkin' about the way I satisfy my needs I'm starting to catch the blues attitude I got the blues, I got a blues attitude Ain't nothing but, got a blues attitude I got a blues attitude Yes I do Listen: I think I go to the bar and get myself a drink In this house, oh lord, I just can't think My head filled with so much stuff Hey bartender: give me a good shot of gin on ice
I'm gonna drink the whole night through To get me off the blues attitude I got the blues, yes I do I tore my blues attitde down Somebody help me I don't know what to do I'm caught up with a blues attitude Say: I'm caught up with a blues attitude I got the blues I got the blues Ain't nothing, ain't nothing like the blues I got a blues attitude Somebody help me I got a blues attitude I'm starting to catch a blues attitude I got a blues attitude To get real off the blues That's a long way I'm gonna keep it I got a blues attitude
