Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Well, I woke up this morning, with the blues on my mind,
The sun ain't shining, and I can't seem to find,
My baby done left me, she's long gone away,
Now I'm sitting here, with these blues to stay.
(Chorus)
Oh, Lord, won't you hear my plea?
I'm down on my luck, can't you see?
With each passing day, the pain just grows,
In this country blues, where the sorrow flows.
(Verse 2)
I used to have a job, working down on the farm,
But the crops all failed, and I lost my charm.
Now I'm drifting and rambling, with no place to go,
Just a lone soul, in this world of woe.
(Chorus)
Oh, Lord, won't you hear my plea?
I'm down on my luck, can't you see?
With each passing day, the pain just grows,
In this country blues, where the sorrow flows.
(Bridge)
I'll grab my guitar, and play a tune,
To chase away these blues, under the moon.
But no matter how hard I try, they just won't fade,
These country blues, like a never-ending shade.
(Chorus)
Oh, Lord, won't you hear my plea?
I'm down on my luck, can't you see?
With each passing day, the pain just grows,
In this country blues, where the sorrow flows.
(Verse 2)
I used to have a job, working down on the farm,
But the crops all failed, and I lost my charm.
Now I'm drifting and rambling, with no place to go,
Just a lone soul, in this world of woe.
(Chorus)
Oh, Lord, won't you hear my plea?
I'm down on my luck, can't you see?
With each passing day, the pain just grows,
In this country blues, where the sorrow flows.
(Bridge)
I'll grab my guitar, and play a tune,
To chase away these blues, under the moon.
But no matter how hard I try, they just won't fade,
These country blues, like a never-ending shade.
(Chorus)
Oh, Lord, won't you hear my plea?
I'm down on my luck, can't you see?
With each passing day, the pain just grows,
In this country blues, where the sorrow flows.
