She said why bother, you've nothing left to take
Just your tattered heart and if that ain’t broke, it’s gonna break
But baby you don’t know is the jokes on you
Yeah I still got the blues

Don’t know why I let you stay on long as I did
Don’t know why I let you treat me like this
But I guess when we were young we’d act like kids
Now if we ever say a word, it’s never forgive
So I’m laying on the floor
Now in the front room saying baby I still got the blues

You’re no woman. A woman’s got heart
And after all this time I still wonder who and what you think you are
So nothing’s going the change the way I think about you
And oh I’m just another link in a chain of fools
At least I know now what a woman can do
And I still got the blues
I still got the blues
