Got to work seven days a week And if I don't, wind up on the street Well I've had enough I've had enough of the blues I'm so tired of being used people I've had enough of the blues Landlord's knockin', he's got to have the rent Before I get my paycheck, it's already spent Well I've had enough I've had enough of the blues So don't bring me no bad news people I've had enough of the blues Sometimes I feel just like I want to cry You know I've been believin' a great big lie
And I wonder, I wonder if there ever comes a time I want to know, oh, if I'm going to get by I've got to do the very best I can I sing these blues cuz I'm a workin' man I've had enough, yes I've had enough of the blues So don't bring me no bad news people I've had enough of the blues I've had enough, hey hey I've had enough of the blues I'm so tired of being used people I've had enough of the blues
