Jamey’s Got the Blues

Jamey's got the blues day after day after day
I know it must be something deep cause there's nothing I can say

That helps to ease the pain
You know I can see in her troubled eyes the skies are gray
And it looks like Jamey's blues are bound to stay

She knows I really care enough to reach out a gentle hand
But even so I guess she doesn't think I'd understand
That when a woman's down
Down is a rough and a lonely place for someone to be
And it looks like Jamey's blues won't set her free

And Jamey's got the blues
And it just ain't right
Jamey's got the blues
In the middle of the night
Jamey's got the blues
And it hurts so bad
I wish those blues would fly away
Come on blues and fly away now

And I remember nights Jamey and I would do the town
And now she never leaves her room and whenever I'm around

There's just not much to say
It's almost as if we were strangers there
Just filling the room
And it looks like Jamey's blues became her tomb

And Jamey's got the blues
Jamey's got the blues
Jamey's got the blues
