I went down to the river
Sat there all night long
Wondering 'bout my life
Wondering what went wrong
Blues in my bottle
Sorrow in my cup
I've been down for so long
It's getting hard to get back up
It's hard to find a woman
Even harder to find a friend
When I think love's beginning
It turns out to be the end
Blues in my bottle
Sorrow in my cup
I've been down for so long
It's getting hard to get back up
I've been drinkin' and drinkin'
To drive my blues away
It leaves me for the night time
But it's right back next day
Blues in my bottle
Sorrow in my cup
I've been down for so long
It's getting hard to get back up
I'm happy on the outside
Folks think I'm OK
But I'm crying on the inside
See my tears they fall like rain
Blues in my bottle
Sorrow in my cup
I've been down for so long
It's getting hard to get back up
