If you're wonderin' What's all the noise I'm in the backroom With the girls and boys Were' discussing the blues And they don't seem to see The blues is all i play The blues don't bother me
When i was a little boy Sittin' on my papa's knee I coulden't a been no older than two or three He said i am a blues man You're gonna take after me After me The blues is my companion The blues don't bother me They don't bother me No they don't
When i go to bed at night I'll throw on a record or two If i didn't have these blues I woulden't know what to do I need them to soothe me To ease my misery The blues is my companion They don't bother me They don't bother me The blues don't bother me They don't bother me Keeps me company I got the blues Relieves my misery Keeps me company The blues don't bother me I got the blues
