Just last night my love

Said she was leaving

I sat right there and

Cried until the dawn

Then booze was added to

The pain and heartbreak

The combination equalled

Trouble from then on

Blues plus booze means I lose

Not a right combination for anyone to choose

Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes

Blues plus booze means I lose

Tonight I'm fast forgetting how she left me

But tomorrow pain will come on twice as strong

I order stronger booze and louder music

Like I'm happy for tonight but not for long

Blues plus booze means I lose

Not a right combination for anyone to choose

Nobody knows the feeling till he's been in my shoes

Blues plus booze means I lose
