| The Good Lord must have heard my prayers, because he packed up and disappeared
|
| He took the praise and extravagant odes, and left the sting I’ve been dying to know
|
| Someone should give that old devil his due
|
| He taught me how to love only you
|
| He taught me how to love only you
|
| I know I owe my good fortune to him
|
| Because he pulled me out of the trance now baby that faith had put me in
|
| I’ve been blessed with a broken heart since the day I was born
|
| Cleansed in the water, the sons and the daughters, stripped of the sins we’re
|
| destined for
|
| I’ve been blessed with a broken heart since I’ve been reborn
|
| Drown in the water, the sons and the daughters, the kind of death worth living
|
| for
|
| The Good Stranger has seen me grieve
|
| Saw the crooked old heart on my sleeve
|
| He took the note I had written and said «Only sinners become better men»
|
| Someone should give that old devil his due
|
| He taught me how to love only you
|
| He taught me how to love only you
|
| Yea I owe the love of my woman to him
|
| Because he pulled her out of the grave now baby that faith put her in
|
| I’ve been blessed with a broken heart since the day I was born
|
| Cleansed in the water, the sons and the daughters, stripped of the sins we’re
|
| destined for
|
| Well I’ve been blessed with a broken heart since I’ve been reborn
|
| Drown in the water, the sons and the daughters, the kind of death worth living

|
| I can’t live without the blues
|
| I can’t love without the blues
|
| I can’t sleep without the blues
|
| The devil will take his pay so we’re alright
|
| I can’t live without the blues
|
| Oh I can’t love without the blues
|
