Lyrics
What The Blues Looks Like
When your best friend, turns his back
You gotta new dent on your Cadillac
Street walker bumming a cigarette
Bad luck gambler, making his last bet
If this is something, That you've seen
Then you know, what I mean
It's what the blues looks like
What the blues looks like
Child at school with not enough to eat
Your wife in another man's back seat
An alcoholic reaching for a drink
A ship at sea as it begins to sink
If this is something, That you've seen
Then you know, what I mean
It's what the blues looks like
What the blues looks like
