"The Blues Away" lyrics
Snowy White & The White Flames Lyrics
It's almost time to draw the curtain on my life
Put down this heavy load
Until I do I'll still play my guitar
While my fingers still do as they're told
It's time to draw a veil over things been said and done
Cos I'm no more sad and blue
I'll still play the blues
But it's just for me
It still sounds OK
Occasionally
My old guitar
Cracked and worn
Looks a bit like me
After forty-five years I let it go
To enjoy the sun in a West Coast condominium
That's OK my friend
Cos it's almost time to draw the curtain on my life
Just a few more licks to play
Just one more song
I'll play along
And in the end
I'll pack my blues away
Put down this heavy load
Until I do I'll still play my guitar
While my fingers still do as they're told
It's time to draw a veil over things been said and done
Cos I'm no more sad and blue
I'll still play the blues
But it's just for me
It still sounds OK
Occasionally
My old guitar
Cracked and worn
Looks a bit like me
After forty-five years I let it go
To enjoy the sun in a West Coast condominium
That's OK my friend
Cos it's almost time to draw the curtain on my life
Just a few more licks to play
Just one more song
I'll play along
And in the end
I'll pack my blues away
