Connecticut Blues

I put some potatoes in to bake

Picked up a couple of real nice steaks

I'm chillin' her favorite Chilean wine

Everything was right on time

But she won't be comin' home tonight

They canceled the flight

Now you can imagine my disappointment in hearin' that

Looks like dinner's just gonna be me and a cat

This has happened to me just too many times

I feel like I'm payin' for somebody else's crime

So as I sip the wine and whine

I got the low-down, snow-bound Connecticut blues

The part I love to hate the most

Is gettin' more of somethin' I can't use

I've got tears runnin' down my face

I've got blues all over the place

The good times just won't let me in

I tried over and over again

So as I sip the wine and whine

I got them low-down, snow-bound Connecticut blues
