So many times you tried to take the best of me.
So many times, now you're gonna take the rest of me.
Better look at what you're doing before it's too late.
Its a fine line you're treadin' between love and hate
There'll be a cold day in hell
Before I'm coming back to you.

So many times you tried to play a dead end game.
Yes, you did.
I tried to tell you, but you'd never wanna take the blame.
Now you've pushed me to the limit, and I can't take no more.
You'd better take one last look before I'm out the door.
There'll be a cold day in hell
Before I'm coming back to you.

You never listened when I told you,
That you were way out of line.
Too busy talking to listen,
Accusing me of telling lies.

So many times you tried to get the best of me.
Yes, you did.
So many times, but now you're gonna take the rest of me.
Well, it's too late for sorry and it's too late for tears.
Better take one last look before I dissappear.
There'll be a cold day in hell.
Before I'm coming back to you.

There'll be a cold day in hell.
before I'm coming back to you.
There'll be a cold day in hell.
before I'm coming back to you.
Yeah!

My baby she left me
My baby she's gone
A sweet little angel
Spread her wings and flown
Can't think of a reason
For going on
From this day
I will play the blues

She said it was over
This time it's the end
Are bad luck an' trouble
Gonna be my only friend
Still can't believe it
After all we've been through
Everyday I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about
It's a pain you can't live with
It's a woman you can't live without
She came from Chicago
Read me the news
In the headlines
Was the story of the blues

They a broken heart
Will always mend
Time is the healer
Sadness will end
But I've done so much crying
When will I laugh again
Till that day I will play the blues

Everybody knows what the blues is all about
It's a pain you can't live with
It's a woman you can't live without
Could've cried me a river
When they told me
The news of that day
Was the story of the blues
				

Oh pretty woman she's the rising sun
Says all your cheap paint and powder ain t gonna help you none
She s a pretty woman right down to the bone
So you just might as well still leave your skin alone

Pretty woman
What s the matter with you
Can t make you love me
no matter what I do

Oh pretty woman what you trying to do
You kept on foolin around till I got stuck on you
So you just drop that mess and come down off your throne
stop using my poor heart as a stepping stone

Pretty woman
What s the matter with you
Can t make you love me
no matter what I do

Oh pretty woman that s all right for you
Now you just go on doing what you want to do
But someday when you thing you ve got it made
You get in water deep enough so you can t wade

Pretty woman
What s the matter with you
Can t make you love me
no matter what I do
				

What is it that you want from me
I really wish I knew
I try so hard to do my best
But it's not good enough for you
Over and over again
We'll make the same mistakes
Over and over again
There's a feeling I just can't shake

Is it time to go
Our separate ways
Is it time to go
Our separate ways

You know I need your love so bad
Can't you see what you're doin' to me
I try so hard to understand
But the truth is never plain to see

Is it time to go
Our separate ways
Is it time to go
Our separate ways

Time after time
I will try to understand
I don't know where we went wrong
There's no use in holding on

Over and over again
We'll make the same mistakes
Over and over again
There's a feeling I just can't shake

Is it time to go
Our separate ways
Is it time to go
Our separate ways
Is it time to go
Our separate ways
Is it time to go
Our separate ways
				

Yeah!
I laid down last night, too tired to wake.
I had a chill this morning, too tired to shake.
I got a good poker hand, too tired to win.
I can hear my baby knockin', too tired to let her in.

I'm tired.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm tired.
Too tired, too tired for anything.

I'm too tired to walk,
too tired to run.
I can hear my baby callin'.
Too tired, too tired,
I'm tired.
Yes, I'm tired.
I'm tired,
I'm too tired for anything.

Take over Albert, I'm too tired for this!

I'm tired of prospherity.
I'm tired of luck.
I'm sittin' on a pin,
I'm too tired to get up.

I'm tired.
I declare I'm tired.
I'm too tired,
too tired for anything.

Oh, Albert I'm tired.
You better take over Albert.
I'm too tired baby.
				

Used to be so easy
to give my heart away
But I've found that the hard way
is a price you have to pay
I found that love
was no friend of mine
I should have known
time after time

So long, it was so long ago
but I still got the blues for you

Used to be so easy
to fall in love again
I've found that the hard way
it's a way that leads to pain
I've found that love
was more than just a game
to play and to win
but to lose just the same

so many years
since I've seen your face
and now in my heart
there's an empty space
where you used to be

Though the days come and go
there's one thing I know
I still got the blues for you
				

Used to wake up in the morning with an aching head
I couldn't remember anything I'd said
My friend told me I was getting out of line
If it wasn't for you baby I'd be doing time

Since I met you baby
You've made a new man of me
Since I met you baby
I'm as happy as a man can be

Used to think I was better than the rest
Ain't no doubt about it, I was no second best
It didn't seem to matter what was right and what was wrong
I'd done some crazy things before you came along

Since I met you baby
You've made a new man of me
Since I met you baby
I'm as happy as a man can be

Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby..............
I'm as happy as a man can be

Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby
Since I met you baby..............
I'm as happy as a man can be

happy as a man can be

I remember Paris in '49
Champs Elyses
Saint Michel and old Beaujolais wine

And I recall
That you were mine
In those Parisienne days

Looking back at the photographs
Those summer days
Spent outside corner cafés

Oh, I could write you paragraphs
About those old Parisienne days
				

What can you say
Isn't much to tell
I'm going down hill
And I blame myself
I been jumpin' at shadows
Thinking 'bout my love

Everybody
Points there hand at me
I know I'm just a picture
Of what I should've been
I been jumpin' at shadows
Thinking 'bout my love

What can you say
Isn't much to tell
I'm going down hill
And I blame myself
I been jumpin' at shadows
Thinking 'bout my love
