Blues Before Sunrise

I've got the blues before sunrise

Tears standing in my eyes

I've got the blues before sunrise

Tears standing in my eyes

It's such a miserable feeling

A feeling I do despise

Seems like everybody

Everybody's down on me

Seems like everybody

Everyone's down on poor me

I'm gonna cast my troubles

Down in the deep blue sea

Today has been such a long and lonesome day

Today has been a long and lonesome day

I've been sitting here and thinking

With my mind a million miles away

Blues started rolling

And stopped in my front door

Blues started rolling

And stopped in my front door

I'm gonna change my way of living

Ain't gonna worry no more

I love my baby

But my baby won't be here

I love my baby

But my baby won't be here

I'm gonna buy me a hot shooting pistol

And put her in her grave
