No Count Blues

You hear the hate in their voices
Even with a smile on their face
If you're not strong in your choices
They'll put you back in your place

Now I've invested my timeline
Spoken to a lot of people
I've come to the conclusion
That no one rides for free

Lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man
Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry
Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues

You hear the hate in their voices
All while they spit in your face
If you're not strong in your choices
All that you've built they erase

I used to think we wore masks
But now I look around and see
Who are these other people
Looking back at me?

Lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man
Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry
Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues

Paycheck blues
Laid off blues
Shameful blues
No count blues

You wanna see me shaking it a little now?
They know what I'm talkin'
I think it's time to get up so we can get down
Let's get to it
And I ain't stayin' here no more
You know what I'm talkin' about

No more lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man
Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry
Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues
