EVERYTHING BLUES song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

I had a home
I wasn't alone
it was so nice
it was worth any price
I had a dog
and I had a cat
I had a place
I could hang my hat
I had a life
I had a wife
but she took everything
every damn thing

I was the king
of my own little world
I was in love
with a beautiful girl
I had a job
I had a car
I kept my bread
in a old fruit jar
but one day I walked in
and caught them in sin
my woman
and my best friend

she took everything
she took everything
she got up and left
and you know the rest
she took my pussy
she took my pooch
she took my money
and all my hooch
she said no deals
drove off in my wheels
she took everything
every damn thing

so now here I sit
where she gone no one knows
I just wait for the bank
to come and foreclose
how did my life
get so out of control
she took my heart
and she took my soul
I hang on by a string
oh death where is thy sting
she took every thing
every god damn thing
