Lyrics

I knew it from the moment
That I opened up my eyes
Knew that gettin out of bed today
Would not be so wise
Might be something I might say
Maybe something I might do
Somehow , somewhere, sometime
I'll be rollin in the blues

I knew I shouldn't do it
I should try to sleep all day
But I stretched and yawned and scratched myself
And I got up anyway
Itried to brush my teeth
The toothpaste tube was flat
tried to pour that last cup of coffee
And I spilled it on my lap

Too bad
I did not stay in bed
I didn't listen to that little voice
That lives inside my head
Now there's nothin left to say
Nothin left to do
somehow, somewhere, sometime
I'll be rollin in the blues

Tried to start my car up
Found my battery was dead
I think you know the words I used
The nasty tings I said
Thought I made it through the day
Without another bad incient
My landlord called at suppertime said
I'm gonna douple up your rent

Too bad
I did not stay in bed
I didn't listen to that little voice
That lives inside my head
Now there's nothin left to say
Nothin left to do
somehow, somewhere, sometime
I'll be rollin in the blues

Made it to the tavern
To see some friends and waste some time
I listened to the stories
Before I told them mine
Our cryin turned t laughin
Started groovin with the band
The tunes that they was layin down
Sent me straight to Hoo Doo land

So glad
I did not stay in bed
I didn't listen to that little voice
That lives inside my head
Now there's nothin left to say
Nothin left to do
somehow, somewhere, sometime
I'll be rollin in the blues
