Power of the Blues

My baby, she left me, my baby, she's gone

My sweet little Angel has spread her wings and flown

Can't think of a reason for going on

From this day I will play the blues

She said it was over, this time it's the end

Bad luck and trouble gonna be my only friend

I still can't believe it, after all we've been through

Everyday I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about

It's a pain you can't live with, it's a woman you can't live without

She came from Chicago, she read me the news

In the headlines was a story of the blues

Say a broken heart can always mend

Time is the healer and sadness will end

But I've done so much crying, when will I laugh again?

Till that day I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about

It's a pain you can't live with, it's a loving you can't live without

Could have cried me a river, when they told me the news

On that day was a story of the blues
