Lyrics Living With the Blues - Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee, Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee

Living With the Blues

Rocks is my pillow, cold ground my bed
Blue sky is my blanket, moonlight’s my spread
I’m not ashamed, ain’t that news, I’ve been living with the blues
You ever been down?
You know how I feel
Feel like an engine, ain’t got no driving wheel
I’m not ashamed, ain’t that news, I’ve been living with the blues
Rocks have been my pillow, cold ground has been my bed
Blue skies have been my blanket, and the moonlight’s been my spread
Oh, yes
You ever been down?
You know how I feel
Feel like an engine, ain’t got no driving wheel
I’m not ashamed, ain’t that news, I’ve been living with the blues
Rocks have been my pillow, cold ground has been my bed
Blue skies have been my blanket, and the moonlight’s been my spread
Oh, yes
Don’t believe I’m sinking, look what a hole I’m in
Don’t believe I love you, look what a fool I’ve been
I’m not ashamed, ain’t that news, I’ve been living with the blues
