Dirty Blues

They're planning in the day
For mischief at night
It was a fools pursuit
That came at a price
She was a small town girl
With big desires
And he was just a working man
Who always wanted more
But she didn't want to know
What he was gonna do
Now everyone in town knows
They're playing the same old tune

Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues

He only knocked three times at the door
To make sure no one was home
He's stealing money from the sick
To feed his finger tips
But he never got the chance
To face the consaquence
When the flesh runs deep
You know you're going to sink

Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues
Oh no it's the dirty blues

She felt the shiver as the sun came up
Cause he was running late
She'd been waiting since three am
To make their great escape
The sirens rage across the land
His foot flat on the floor
But suddenly he hit a ditch
And that's when things went south

They were rocking the dirty blues
What's a poor soul to do
When your rocking the greedy mood
You might just catch the blues
