Just last night my love said she was leaving
I sat right there and cried until the dawn
Then booze was added to the pain and heartbreak
The combination equalled trouble from then on
Blues plus booze means I lose
Not a right combination for anyone to choose
Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes
Blues plus booze means I lose
[ piano ]
Tonight I'm fast forgetting how she left me
But tomorrow pain will come on twice as strong
I order stronger booze and louder music
Like I'm happy for tonight but not for long
Blues plus booze means I lose...
