70's Blues

I woke up this mornin'

I was feelin' so bad

I didn't know what was wrong

I had a pain in my head

My mind was so troubled

From what I did not know

I took a look at my face in the mirror

And lo and behold

The blues was there

I said the blues was there

I felt like cryin'

But the tears would not come

I felt like talkin'

To someone, but no one was there

I started to thinkin'

And the more I thought, the more I dropped

I just kept right on sinkin'

'Cause I could not stop it

The blues had taken over

I said the blues had taken over

I woke up this mornin'

I should've never went to sleep

I wish I had a-kept on dreamin'

'Cause reality, it ain't easy

I was dreamin' my life had changed

I was dreamin' 'bout peace of mind

And when I started dreamin' 'bout me and you

Hmm, that's when I woke up tired

Tired of the blues, I'm so tired of the blues

The blues are takin' over

And I've lost control

The blues have taken over

And they're runnin' my soul

Every day I've got the blues

Every night, night, night, night, night, night

I got the blues

Those livin', lovin'

Tryin' to make it

Whoa, '70s can't find their blues

And I got 'em bad

Go on and play now, go on and play

The blues have taken over

And I've lost control

The blues have taken over

And they're runnin' my soul

Every day I've got the blues

Every night, night, night, night, night

I got the blues

Those livin', lovin'

Tryin' to make it

Whoa, '70s can't find their blues

And I got 'em bad, I got 'em bad

I got 'em bad

The blues have taken over

The blues are runnin' my soul

The blues have taken over

And I have lost control
