Bobby Bland - A Touch Of The Blues lyrics

rate me

I said it wasn't long ago, I was doing real good

Don't you know my baby was acting, like a sweet girl should

But she found another, whoa Lord, and I got the news

And now I'm here suffering, from a touch of the blues

My friends say I look bad, and I guess they are right

I can't eat or sleep, no no baby

I toss and turn all night, my eyes are al red

Whoa Lord, and I'm dragging my shoes

But I'm not really worried, no, no, baby

It's just a touch of the blues

I went to see my doctor, but he said I was alright

I didn't get a prescription, just some good advice

He said to forget you, whoa Lord, and stop being your fool

If you wanted to lose this touch of the blues

Oh, I guess time will ease this pain in my heart

Then I'll find a new lover baby, oh Lord, and make a brand new start

Then I'll hope that she'll love me, oh Lord, and always be true

And don't leave me here suffering, with a touch of the blues
