I've been working so hard
Just came home from my job
I look down in my wallet
Goddammit, I've been boughtWhere can my money be now?
Five of the week's long work
What can I do now?
I got so many bills to payYou got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues
You got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues, yeahI got to tell you that the blues reached out of my pocket
People, oh what a shame!
The bills are gonna rob me tomorrow
That's why I need my ten dollars todayYou got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues
You got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my duesThe blues reached out of my pocket
People, oh what a shame!
The bills are gonna rob me tomorrow
That's why I need my ten dollars todayYou got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues
You got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues, yeahOh baby, oh baby you got me singing
Singing in the morning, singing in the new day
You got me singing, yeah
You got me singing, yeah
You got me singingThe blues reached out of my pocket
People, what a shame!
The bills are gonna rob me tomorrow
That's why I need my ten dollars todayYou got me singing the blues
And I'm paying all my dues
You got me singing the bluesBaby I'm gonna singing
Singing in the morning
