My Old Friend The Blues by Steve Earle
Sung by Steve at Java Joe's 18.10.97

But just when every ray
of hope was gone
I should've known that you
would come along
Can't believe I ever
doubted you
My old friend the blues

Another night in a nameless town
If sleep don't take me first
You'll come around
I know I can't always
count on you
My old friend the blues

Cause lovers & even friends
will let you down
But you're the only sure thing
that I've found
Just let me hide my weary
heart in you
My old friend the blues

Cause lovers & even friends
will let you down
But you're the only sure thing
that I've found
Just let me hide my weary
heart in you
My old friend the blues

Let me hide my weary
heart in you
My old friend the blues
