Lyrics
Verse]
Well, I woke up this mornin', felt like somethin' wasn't right,
Stepped outside to my garden, what a terrible sight,
Slugs been feastin' on my 'taters, leavin' nothin' behind,
They chewed up my radishes, onions, and turnip greens, it's a crime.
Those slugs are sneaky creatures, slitherin' in the night,
They slime their way through my garden, takin' bites with delight,
I tried every trick in the book, but they keep comin' back,
These slimy pests are persistent, puttin' my garden under attack.
My heart sinks as I survey the damage they've done,
My once-lush garden now looks like it's lost in the sun,
I'm feelin' low, feelin' blue, don't know what to do,
These slugs are winnin' the battle, and I'm feelin' the blues, so true.
I need me a solution, gotta find a way,
To keep those slugs away, night and day,
I'm tired of this struggle, it's a never-endin' fight,
But I won't give up without puttin' up a fight.
[Bridge]
Oh, those slugs, they're a nuisance, that's no lie,
But I won't let 'em get the best of me, I'll keep on tryin',
I'll find a way to protect my garden, that's my pride,
Can't let those slimy creatures take me for a ride.
[Harmonica Solo]
[Final Verse]
I'll keep on searchin' for a solution, that's my plan,
Gonna reclaim my garden, take back what's mine, stand my stand,
Those slugs may be a challenge, but they won't win,
I'll keep on fightin', keep on persistin', until my garden's slug-free again.
[Harmonica Solo]
[Final Verse]
I'll keep on searchin' for a solution, that's my plan,
Gonna reclaim my garden, take back what's mine, stand my stand,
Those slugs may be a challenge, but they won't win,
I'll keep on fightin', keep on persistin', until my garden's slug-free again.
So, here I am, with the blues and a story to tell,
About those slugs and my garden, it's a real-life hell,
But I won't be beaten, I'll keep on strivin',
The day will come when my garden's thriving'.
And that's the blues I'm singin' tonight, my friend,
About those slugs and the garden they tried to rend,
But I won't be beaten, I'll keep standin' tall,
The day will come when those slugs won't bother me at all.
Yeah, those slugs might be a challenge, but I won't let 'em win,
I'm gonna fight 'em off, again and again,
This is my garden, my piece of land,
And I won't let no slugs take it away, that's my stand.
So, my friend, if you're feelin' those blues, too,
Just remember, you're not alone, we'll get through,
We'll find a way to beat those slugs at their game,
And our gardens will flourish, that's the name of the game.
