If you're wonderin'
What's all the noise
I'm in the backroom
With the girls and boys
Were' discussing the blues
And they don't seem to see
The blues is all I play
The blues don't bother me
When I was a little boy
Sittin' on my papa's knee
I coulden't a been no older than two or three
He said I am a blues man
You're gonna take after me
After me
The blues is my companion
The blues don't bother me
They don't bother me
No they don't
When I go to bed at night
I'll throw on a record or two
If I didn't have these blues
I woulden't know what to do
I need them to soothe me
To ease my misery
The blues is my companion
They don't bother me
They don't bother me
The blues don't bother me
They don't bother me
keeps me company
I got the blues
Relieves my misery
Keeps me company
The blues don't bother me
I got the blues
