"I Ain't Got Nothin' But The Blues" lyrics
"I Ain't Got Nothin' But The Blues"
Ain't got the change of a nickel
Ain't got no bounce in my shoes
Ain't go no fancy to tickle
I ain't got nothin' but the blues
Ain't got no coffee that's perking
Ain't got no winnings to lose
Ain't got a dream that is working
I ain't got nothin' but the blues
When trumpets flare up
I keep my hair up
I just can't make it come down
Believe me pappy
I can't get happy
Since my ever loving baby left town
Ain't got no rest in my slumbers
Ain't got no feelings to bruise
Ain't got no telephone numbers
I ain't got nothin' but the blues

Right here in town....

And I feel like I'm clingin' to a cloud
I can' t understand
I get misty, just holding your hand
Walk my way
And a thousand violins begin to play
Or...
