Peggy Sang The Blues

Peggy came to me in my sleep

In the middle of the night

On a Friday night last week

She whispered: "Hush and don't be scared"

Got me a few words of wisdom

That I came back to share

And she said

It doesn't matter where you come from

It matters where you go

No one gets remembered

For the things they didn't do

I said, "Peggy won't you stay here for awhile?"

We can drink whiskey

We can play cards

And we can get wild

She said: "We can play poker and we'll play for keeps"

"I only play angels lately and they never let me cheat"

It doesn't matter where you come from

It matters where you go

No one gets remembered

In this listless life

For the things they didn't do

And you can say I had a good start

And you could say I had class

And you could say I was born beneath the ceiling made of glass

But I always kept an open house

And yeah I always did right by my friends

And when it comes to Saint Peter's gate

I told the people remember one who needs to make amends

'Cause better times are coming

Better times ahead

And no one gets remembered

My deathless child

Don't waste too long in bed

And Peggy said:

It doesn't matter where you come from

It matters where you go

And no one gets remembered

In this listless, loveless life

For the things they didn't do

Now, now, now, now, now

Well Peggy sang the blues

I've been drifting off

Well Peggy sang the blues

And I've drifted off

Well Peggy sang the blues

And I've drifted off

Well Peggy sang the blues

Peggy sang the blues
