Blues Brothers The Shotgun Blues Lyrics

Shotgun Blues Lyrics

Every night i go to sleep

 The blues fall down like rain

 Every night i go to sleep

 The blues fall down like rain

 Taking pills, cheap whiskey

 Just to try to ease the pain

 

 

 Well it's hard to gamble

 When you lose every bet

 Hard to save money

 When you're twenty years in debt

 The blues is falling

 Falling down on me like rain

 I'm gonna take a shotgun now people

 And disconnect my brain

 Matt 'guitar' murphy!

 

 

 I made some mistakes

 Had some bad breaks

 Now my mind don't work

 And my whole body aches

 The blues is falling

 Falling down on me like rain

 My life is like water

 Just swirling down the drain

 

 

 Well i tried standin' up

 I keep on falling down

 Tried standing up

 Keep on fallin' down

 Everywhere i go

 The blues is all around
