TRYING TO SHAKE THE BLUES

IVE GOT THE BLUES IN THE MORNING
IVE GOT THE BLUES THROUGH  THE DAY
I HAVENT KNOWN FOR A LONG TIME
WHAT ITS LIKE NOT TO FEEL THIS WAY

BUT IM TRYING OH YES IM TRYING
TRYING TO SHAKE THE BLUES AWAY

I SEE MY WOMAN ON MONDAY
AND SHE JUST BRINGS ME DOWN
OH LORD SHE BRINGS ME DOWN
SHE SAYS I AINT DONE THIS OR THAT
SHE AINT SEEN ME FOR A WEEK AND SHES LEAVING TOWN

BUT IM TRYING OH YES IM TRYING
TRYING TO SHAKE THE BLUES AWAY

I GO TO WORK ON WENDSDAY
AND THE BOSS JUST CALLS ME IN
HE SAYS THERES NO WORK TILL MONDAY
DONT COME BACK TO THEN

BUT IM TRYING OH YES IM TRYING
TRYING TO SHAKE THE BLUES AWAY
