Blues Before Sunrise
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Have the blues 'fore sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
Said the miserable feeling
A feeling I do despise
Seem like everybody, everybody's down on me
Seem like everybody, everybody's down on me
I'm gon' change my way of living
Head my trouble in the deep blue sea
Well, I love my baby but my baby won't be here
Well, I love my baby but my baby won't be here
I'm above hard chewed and pissed off
I'm gon' put her down in her grave
And in a mean old world you're living all by yourself
And in a mean old world you're living all by yourself
If I can't get you
I'ma get somebody dead
