Laika - Barefoot Blues lyrics

rate me

Anybody's better than nobody

‘Cause one's never better than two

Anybody's better than nobody

For me and my barefoot blues

I'm spending money like water

And drinking life like wine

But it's a big old bed in a lonesome house

Unhappiness all I find

Once I danced in the sunshine

I used to laugh at the rain

Did the belly-rub with all kinds of men

Lord I'd love to do it again

But in this sea of scorn & laughter

I look for the silvery moon

But there's no one but me and my lonely key

A bare bulb rented room

I'm going down to the river

Gonna have me a little swim

An autumn flower in the frozen rain

Can't believe the state I'm in

‘Cause a body was better than nobody

And one seemed worse than two

When that anybody turned to nobody

And left me to my barefoot blues
