Lyrics
Same Ol’ Blues
©Andy May, (Swift River Music/BMI)
Gonna walk into the kitchen
Have another cuppa coffe
I’m lookin’ for a way
To shake the old blues off me
The pile of bills gets thicker
My wallet’s gettin’ thinner
Man, I wonder what the heck
We’re gonna have for dinner
Times have changed
But it’s the same old blues
It don’t take a genius
It don’t take a committee
To see that times are tough
In the country and the city
So I’ll keep my eyes open
Stand and watch
Tighten up my belt
Just one more notch
Times have changed
But it’s the same old blues
Bridge:
Gotta keep it
Between the lines
Gotta keep on lookin’
For the better times
Grandpa taught us this
And it made a big impression
How they all pitched in
And made it through the Great Depression
So I’ll get up early
Put in my time
Maybe tomorrow
The sun will shine
Times have changed
But it’s the same old blues
Bridge
