I feel it through my shoes They used to call that the blues Now they call it depression Everywhere I go Yes I get to feel so low If I got depression Wife don’t want no part of me And yes that fact is hard on me That’s true I give the doctor a description And he just writes a prescription Or two Peace and quiet were here before But they both walked out the door And left me with depression
I hardly leave my room Most days I sleep ’till noon If I got depression Most folks think I’m fine But the truth is I’m surprised I’ve got depression To all those girls I’ve loved before I’m sorry I love this one more That’s true If she would just stay with me Her presence can only lift me And get me through I start to come around I stop putting myself down That’s called progression
