Dead Man's Blues
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.
Goin' through my life
Day by day
Wonderin' why
And what road it'll take
Sometimes low
And sometimes high
I gotta find a reason
To live by
Well I've been seaching
Far and wide
Over the water
Beyond the sky
And I've been watching the moon above
Smiling down at me
What's he thinkin' of
What's he thinkin'
Way up in the sky
But he could tell me
Where my future lies
There ain't no promise
Or guarantee
Ain't no wisdom
Being layed on me
And it's a low down dirty shame
But I gotta find the answer just the same
Well I've been playin' the dead man's blues
And now I need a drink
It's gonna be on you
The day of judgement ain't far away
But who'll be the judge
It's hard to say
