Lyrics

chorus:
hey doctor there's nothing stronger than the blues
there's nothing harder than playing a game you're gonna lose
there's nothing in your books and there's nothing in your training
to take away a cold dark lonely night when it is raining
and it's raining

lay down your pen all I needed was a friend
to tell me why he said goodbye on that day in late july
but if you could have seen his face you'd know how
I got in this place right now

chorus
Yes if I had ration I would not be asking
all these questions that you frown upon
yeah I ought to carry on but this man that I had fallen for
I can't have him anymore it's crazy
chorus
