Classic Case Of The Blues

Well, my truck broke down this morning on the freeway

Somewhere between here and where I'd been

And I lost my favorite lady last night in a card game

She stacked the deck so I couldn't win.

Chorus:

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

There's an old piano playin' on the jukebox

And a steel guitar just beggin' me to cry

And those barroom ladies smilin' by the dozen

Just so they can tear my heart out one more time.

Chorus:

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

Well, there's a brighter side to everything I'm saying

There's a silver lining somewhere down the line

But I sure ain't seen that brighter side lately

I'll be damned if I'll believe that lining shines.

Chorus:

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

Chorus:

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

You've got me livin' with a classic case of the blues...
