Depression Blues Lyrics

Depression Blues

Got a woman that loves me               [compare "Life In The City"]

 And I love her so                       [compare "Life In The City"]

 But she's all dressed up now            [compare "Life In The City"]

 With nowhere to go                      [compare "Life In The City"]

  

 All our old hang-outs                   [compare "Life In The City"]

 Are boarded up and closed               [compare "Life In The City"]

 Or bein' bought by somebody             [compare "Life In The City"]

 Nobody knows                            [compare "Life In The City"]

  

 But things ain't that bad

 We still got the kids

 We're goin' out to the movies

 Right after this

  

 Goin' back to school

 Savin' up my tuition

 Gonna rewrite all the rules

 On the old blackboard

  

 'Cause it seems things today

 There ain't no magic in 'em

 They don't cut the grade

 Like they used to

  

 [CHORUS]

 Depression blues

 Nowhere to go

 Bein' bought by somebody

 Nobody knows

  

 Is there anybody out there

 With a voice loud and clear             [compare "Crime In The City"]

 Gonna sing all the words

 That we all wanna hear

  

 [CHORUS]
