I Just Can't Help But Getting' The Blues

They keep following me, I can’t seem to shake them out

They’ll be with me when I sleep

I can see, there’s no doubt

 

Will they leave me when I move?

Stop and shake me when I’m through?

There’s only one thing I know that’s true

I just can’t help but gettin’ the blues

 

Will I see them when they show?

Will they follow me on down the road?

When they’re here, I feel the same refuse

I just can’t help but gettin’ the blues

 

Will they show themselves?

Will I know or be able to tell?

They won’t seem like passing through

Oh, can you feel it too?

 

Once a day and twice a night

The same thing strikes me with a fright

How can I know what to do?

When I can’t help but gettin’ the blues

 

Will I see them when they show?

Will they follow me on down the road?

When they’re here, I feel the same refuse

I just can’t help but gettin’ the blues

 

The same old show rolls on, with nothing left to lose

How can I know what to do?

If all I can do is get the blues

 

Will I see them when they show?

Will they follow me on down the road?

When they’re here, I feel the same refuse

I just can’t help but gettin’ the blues

 

Lord you know it’s true

I just can’t help but gettin’ the blues
