SOMEBODY ELSE'S BLUES song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

somebody else is crying the blues
somebody else has got the bad news
somebody else is wailing away
somebody else down in the dumps today
it aint me
it aint me
I aint so sorrowful you see
I can be happy if I choose
it must be somebody else's blues

I hear them crying deep down underground
I hear the echoing of a mournful sound
down in the subway or inside the pipes
but I don't wanna listen to their gripes
not for me
not for me
don't wanna know got no curiosity
bubbling up maybe out of the ooze
must be somebody else's blues

I sung my share of blues in e flat
I'm telling you buddy that aint where its at
I done my time for my share of crimes
I crossed my heart and I crossed the line
let me be
let me be
don't need no pity and sympathy
I aint so ignorant to confuse
my heart with somebody else's blues

now listen here if you want good advice
I'll tell you once but I won't tell you twice
life is too short to take on the whole world
times too quick for just one single girl
set me free
set me free
if you cannot get along with me
one and one don't add up always two
go and sing somebody else's blues
