Written by:Brownie McGhee/Rr[00:00:02]
From my childhood where I am now[00:00:09]
I ain't gonna worry I'll get by somehow[00:00:13]
My momma had 'em daddy had 'em too[00:00:17]
I was born with the blues[00:00:22]
I'll tell you somethin'[00:00:28]
Friend it ain't no joke[00:00:30]
I wouldn't take my past life[00:00:32]
For my weight in gold[00:00:34]
My momma had 'em daddy had 'em too[00:00:36]
I was born with the blues[00:00:41]
I'd use my guitar for my pillow[00:00:46]
Hollow logs is even been my bed[00:00:51]
Blues my only companion[00:00:55]
I had to sing the blues for my meat and bread yes[00:00:59]
I want you to know[00:01:03]
I began to roam[00:01:05]
Old Brownie come from a broken home[00:01:07]
My momma had 'em daddy had 'em too[00:01:12]
I was born with the blues[00:01:17]
If you've ever been down[00:01:22]
You know how I feel[00:01:24]
Feel like an Indian ain't got no drivin' wheel[00:01:26]
But I'm not ashamed ain't that news[00:01:31]
I've been livin' with the blues[00:01:35]
Don't believe I'm sinkin' look what a hole I'm in[00:01:41]
Don't believe I love you[00:01:45]
Look what a fool I've been[00:01:47]
But I'm not ashamed ain't that news[00:01:49]
I've been livin' with the blues[00:01:54]
Because rocks was my mother and father's pillow[00:02:00]
Kick it[00:02:03]
Cold ground had to be their bed[00:02:05]
Blue skies was their blanket[00:02:09]
And the moonlight was their spirit yes[00:02:13]
You think I'm happy but you don't know my mind[00:02:17]
Smile on my face my heart's bleedin' all the time[00:02:21]
But I'm not ashamed ain't that news[00:02:26]
I've been livin' with the blues[00:02:31]
I said rocks was my mother and father's pillow[00:02:37]
Cold ground had to be their bed[00:02:41]
Blue skies was their blanket[00:02:46]
And the moonlight was their spirit yes[00:02:50]
Look all summer slave on the phone[00:02:54]
Have to take your Christmas and your overalls[00:02:58]
But I'm not ashamed ain't that news[00:03:02]
I've been livin' with the blues[00:03:07]
My momma had 'em daddy had 'em too[00:03:13]
I was born with the blues[00:03:18]
I'm not ashamed no friends ain't that another news[00:03:24]
Me and old Sonny's got the blues[00:03:29]
