Blues on the ceiling

Over my head

Running down the walls

Across the floor

Over my bed

Blue lights across the street

Blinkin' off and on

I'm so lonely now you're gone

I'll never get out of these blues

Never get out of these blues alive

And keep on coming

Up my weary head

Even cocaine couldn't ease the pain

I'd be better off dead

Blue lights gone out so I can't sleep

The bitter the blues the better they keep

I'll never get out of these blues alive, alive

Never get out of these blues

I'll never get out of these blues

Never get out of these blues alive

On the ceiling

Over my head

Running down the walls

Across the floor

Under my bed

Blue lights across the street

Blinkin' off and on

I'm so lonely now you're gone

I'll never get out of these blues

Never get out of these blues alive
