My Old Friend the Blues

just when every ray of hope was gone
I should have known that you would come along
I can’t believe I ever doubted you
my old friend the blues
another lonely night, a nameless town
sleep won’t get me, you will come around
'cause I can always count on you
my old friend the blues
'cause lovers leave and friends will let you down
you’re the only sure thing that I’ve found
there’s one thing I know I’ll never lose
my old friend the blues
'cause lovers leave and friends will let you down
you’re the only sure thing I have found
there’s one thing I know I’ll never lose
my old friend the blues
let me rest my weary heart on you
my old friend the blues
