I Play The Blues

Been way down under
Travelin' just for fun
Walked through the jungle
Then to the land of the rising sun
Been downhearted
She had my fair share of tears
Playin' this music
For all we hear

So I play the blues
And it comes from the heart
Keepin' it goin'
I said I'm doin' my part

So I'll pray the sad blues
Give you all of the bad news
Yes, I'll pray the blues
It makes you wanna cry
I'll keep on doin' it
Until the day, 'til the day I die

No peace, Lord, at the border
Said there's crime in the street
Voice of the children
Cries the sounds of defeat
I've been walkin' in circles
Seems I'm goin' nowhere
And I just can't understand it
'Cause nobody cares

So I'll play the blues
And it comes from the heart
Keepin' it goin'
Said I'm doin' my part

So I'll play the sad blues
Give you all of the bad news
Yes, I'll play the blues
Makes you wanna cry
And I'll keep on doin' it
Until the day, 'til the day I die

I'm gonna keep right on doin' it
Until the day, 'til the day I die
I'm gonna keep right on doin' it
Until the day, 'til the day I die
I'm gonna keep right on doin' it
Until the day, until the day
Until the day that I die
Until the day, 'til the very, very, very day
That I die
