Born With The Blues

I was born in a one room shack by a railroad line With that lonesome whistle blowing all the time Steel wheels screaming cross the rails Bright lights flashing through the nails Everything coming unglued I was born with the blues I was born with the blues From the moment I could walk I had to learn to run From all them crazy people that were getting on Somewhere down that railroad track coming up and going back Messing around with my mood I was born with the blues I was born with the blues Blues just make you crazy Blues don't make you cool Blues steal all a your common sense And make you act just like a fool I'm going down to the crossroads one of these days Gonna sell my soul and get me outta these chains Gonna take my heart and set it free cause I've had all of the misery I can use I was born with the blues I was born with the blues I was born with the blues
