Coffee tastes bitter Wallet’s getting thinner Wasting away with my thoughts of you Stuck in the mud on what else I can do Dishes piling higher Clothes still hanging on the wire Friends are wondering if I’m okay Tell me no tears, just let him walk away Ooh…. Like my mama used to say A little bit of sunshine To chase my blues away
Smiles turn bitter Hope is getting thinner Think back to every little word you said Give me a clue to help me clear my head Looks are getting bolder Whispers getting louder Asking how I can still love you Why I still leave the light on at night for you Ooh….. Like my mama used to say A little bit of sunshine A little bit of sunshine To chase my blues away
You never loved me the way you should A quiet distance in the way you stood Closed my eyes to everything I knew What’s it say that I still fight for you? Three months I’ve been waiting on you Keep on thinking somehow maybe baby you’ll come through Like a fool I…. Like a fool I Still believe in you.
Coffee taste bitter Wallets getting thinner Wasting away with my thoughts of you Stuck in the mud on what else I can do Ooo…Like my mama used to say A little bit of sunshine, A little bit of sunshine
Whiskey turned sour I’m dying by the hour Wait for the start of a brand new day Pray for the heartache to fade away Nights are getting colder This stories getting older I need to bury my thoughts of you I know there’s nothing else that I can do Like my mama used to say, Like my mama used to say A little bit of sunshine, A little bit of sunshine To chase my blues away, to chase my blues away To chase my blues away, to chase my blues away
