I've been working so hard
Just came home from my job
Looked down in my wallet
Good God, I've been robbedNow where can my money be?
All my hard earned pay
What am I goin' to do now?
I got my bills to payYou got me singin' the blues
And I'm payin' all my dues
You got me singin' the blues
Ain't got nothin' to loseI got to tell you I got the
Blues down in my pocketsPeople, what did I say?
Bills are gonna rob me tomorrow
Why I need my ten dollars today?You got me singin' the blues
And I'm payin' all my dues
You got me singin' the blues
Ain't got nothin' to loseAin't no way to get even
Because you know what I mean
Every time I make me some money
Somebody's goin' to take it from meYou got me singin' the blues
And I'm payin' all my dues
You got me singin' the blues
Ain't got nothin' to loseYou got me singin' the blues
And I'm payin' all my dues
You got me singin' the blues
Ain't got nothin' to lose
