Worried Down With The Blues

Been lying here for hours Can't get my eyes to close Can't get one moments peace To save my doggone soul I've been doing more than drinking' Trying' to ease my pain But everywhere I go, somebody speaks your name All my friends keep on asking' Boy what's wrong with you I say I'm worried, worried down with the blues Tried to be a good man Worked my fingers to the bone And you returned the favor By wreckin' up my happy home You played so many dirty tricks 'Til I lost my faith in you Now you want me to take you back What's a poor man supposed to do Worried down with the blues Oh, yes I am Worried down with the blues Feel like I was born to lose I used to walk with pride With my head held high Now I'm staring down at my shoes Yes, I'm worried, worried down with the blues You made me turn my back On my very best friends And when my back was turned You were messin' around with them Still I'd give up everything To have you back by my side 'Cause in the cold, cold night When I reach for you All I'm holdin' is my foolish pride Worried down with the blues Oh, yes I am Worried down with the blues Feel like I was born to lose I used to walk with pride With my head held high Now I'm staring down at my shoes Yes I'm worried, worried down with the blues --- Worried Down With the Blues - Gov't Mule
