Blues Of The Month Club

It's the first of the month, it's about that time

I step out to the mailbox, knowing what I will find

Oh, there's a note from the landlord saying I'm overdue

And a bill from the doctor, but I still got the flu

Oh, there's an always electric, water and gas

I can tell that my paycheck, it just ain't gonna last

One thing I'm sure of, my dues are paid up

I'm a member in good standing

I got a letter this morning from my first ex-wife

There's not enough money to get her out of my life

And the woman I'm loving, she's a doin' me a wrong

Our June wedding has been postponed

That's the same story, I heard in last May

I don't understand it, why she treats me this a way

One thing I'm sure of, my dues are paid up

I'm a member in good standing

Hey, yeah-yeah

I wrote a book on how to fail

As I expected, it was no sale

One thing I'm sure of, my dues are paid up

January's here, it's gonna be a cold New Year

A February would be fine if I had me a Valentine

March, April, May and June, something a better happen soon

July, August and September, not one good day to remember

I'm glad, oh, I'm glad

October's over, Octobers over
