King Blues by King Hobo Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It started in April. continued through May
Darkness had caught me and in there I would stay
Cold sweat and heartbeats, way too fast
Started to worry about how long I would last

[Chorus]
No matter what I tried, I just kept on falling into the same old blues
Into the same old blues

[Verse 2]
Tried your prescriptions, drank my own shine
Hell, I even had your bitter potato wine
Bought me a Volvo, took it for a spin
But I ended up at the bottom of the sea

[Chorus]
No matter what I tried, I just kept on falling into the same old blues
Into the same old blues
Into the same old blues
Same old blues, yeah
[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
"Rise and shine", the doctor said
"You must be the luckiest man that I've ever met
Now pick up your mojo and do what you should"
Life's too short and I guess I finally understood

[Outro]
No more bad luck, now I'm gonna pick myself up from this evil king blues
