Can you hear that freight train coming
Rollin' round the bend
Sounds for all the world just like a long lost friend
If I could I swear I'd hop aboard and ride away
Cuz I got to keep my blues at bay
Mmmm... got to keep my blues at bay
Swimming in that river - a river filled with tears
For the price of a broken heart would last a million years
I've done my baby dirty what else can I say
I've got to keep my blues at bay
Mmmm... got to keep my blues at bay
So I keep pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
And pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
Every night and every day
I keep pushin', and pushin' and pushin' and pushin'
I've got to keep my blues at bay
Tonight I sit and wonder how I'm still alive
By tearing down the highway on this midnight drive
Lord I know you love me, but now please look away
Because I got to keep my blues at bay
So I keep pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
And pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
Every night and every day
I keep pushin', and pushin' and pushin' and pushin'
I've got to keep my blues at bay
I keep on pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
And pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
Every single night and day
Pushin', and pushin' and pushin' and pushin'
I've got to keep my blues at bay
Yeah... I got to keep my blues at bay
Oh little girl, got to get away
