Here are the words...

1:
Shuffling down the street - with nowhere to go,
She kicked me out - out in the cold; (that’s low)
Time to find me a bar - and spend me some dough! (oh no)

2:
I slide in to a bar - shuffling my shoes,
I climb up a stool - and buy me some booze; (not news)
Now I’m sitting in this bar - drinking the blues! (with no clue)

Chorus 1:
Another round on my tab,
No need for a cab;
Feeling down in this bar - drinking the blues! (what a fool)

Lead break
Modulate to Fm

3:
It’s getting late in the night - and I’m feeling numb,
I don’t know where I’m at - I’m just a bum; (so dumb)
Now this bar is my home - with nowhere - to run! (no fun)

4:
Now it’s closing time - and I’m out of booze,
Time to leave this bar - it’s time to - cruise; (I refuse)
Time to pull up a curb - and sleep off - the blues! (with a snooze)

Chorus 2:
I’m waking up to the news,
I’m no longer - confused;
Soon another night - of drinking the blues!

Tag:
Time to take me cruise - and drink me - some blues!
I’m a fool - for loving you!
