Lyrics
Blues on the ceiling
Over my head
Running down the walls
Across the floor and over my bed
Blue lights across the street blinking off and on
It's so lonely now she's gone
I'll never get out of these blues alive
I'll never get out of these crazy blues alive

Love had been a dirty five letter word to me
I was into the blues over my head
Blue was all I could see, up to my neck in misery
I'll never get out of these blues alive
I'll never get out of this crazy blues alive

Blues keep on fooling with my weary head
Cocaine couldn't numb the pain, I'd been better off dead
The lights gone out, at last I sleep
The bitter the blues, the better they keep
I'll never get out of these blues alive
I'll never get out of these blues alive
