Blues For a Wife

The blues jumped up and slapped me last night when I walked in
Man ran out the back door, while you sat there drinking gin
Everywhere I look, I lead a mighty hard life
Cause havin' you for a woman means havin' the blues for a wife

Well, alright
Ran around the corner, tryin' to catch him if I can
Underneath the street lights, he looked like my boss man
Everywhere I look, I lead a mighty hard life
Yeah, havin' you for a woman means havin' the blues for a wife

Came back in the kitchen, tryin' to ease my worried mind
All that she left me was half a box of wine
Everywhere I look, I'm leadin' about a hard life
Yeah, havin' you for a woman means havin' the blues for a wife
Well, aww Man

Went to see a gypsy, to have my fortune read
She looked into my hands, and this is what she said
Hard times are trouble for the rest of your days
Cause if you keep that woman, boy
She'll never change her evil ways
Yeah
