Shemekia Copeland - Married To The Blues lyrics

rate me

I never win at love

At love I always lose

I keep looking for a good man

And I ain't got no clue

I can't find no one to love me

I guess I'm married to the blues

Married to the blues

There's a picture by my bedside

In a frame that's got a crack

Of one of my old lovers

Who ain't never comin' back

He swore he'd never leave me

Then I saw him start to pack

Start to pack

Oh when you're married to the blues

Married to the blues

You don't get no band of gold

All you get is a lonely cab ride

To a bed that's always cold

When you're married to the blues

Forget that honeymoon

All you get is luke-warm lovin'

That's over way, way too soon

There's a letter in my pocket

It's all torn

Torn and frayed

The only thing

Only thing he left me

When he ran

Ran away

Now when you're married to the blues

It gets more lonely everyday

Oh... All these blues

I knew he would leave me

He was never comin' back

He left me a torn letter

Then he ran away

Ran away

Married to the blues

Oh... All these blues

You get so lonely

Lonely

Lonely

Lonely

Married to the blues
