Everyone has had the blues at some time
And been used, I ain't lying
I've been used and abused
And I've got the blues, blues, blues
Over you

Everyone has had it hard at some time
People trying to find a peace of mind
I've been trying, I ain't lying
Trying to find a peace of mind
Over you

I lay every night
Thinking about my situation
I get the blues
Right off the bat
If we can just have
A decent conversation
You know that things
Wouldn't be so bad

Oh I was cheated, why I don't know
And mistreated by a no good so and so
I've been cheated and mistreated
And I've got the blues, blues, blues
Over you

I lay every night
Thinking about my situation
I get the blues
Right off the bat
If we can just have
A decent conversation
You know that things
Wouldn't be so bad

You've got to live and let live
When we were together
All you wanted for me was to give
Now I'm not giving, you're barely living
You're on your own
You're living all alone
Now we're through, me and you
And I don't have the blues, blues, blues
Over you
