Put down that two pack habit yesterday Threw that show gla** just to watch it break My whiskey bottle turned upside down in the drain Those wild women that's a whole another thing I give up everything, baby I give up everything for you I got nothing left to lose I gave up everything for you, 'cept the blues Went on a diet, yeah I'm eating good Gave up the things you said I should Fit as a fiddle girl I lost ten pounds So why am I so damn down? I give up everything, baby I give up everything for you I got nothing left to lose I gave up everything for you, 'cept the blues
Put out the reefer, no more getting stoned Trade in my fast car for a motor home Took all my demons, put 'em in a sack How come I still feel there's a monkey on my back I give up everything, baby I give up everything for you I got nothing left to lose I gave up everything for you, 'cept the blues I had the good life in the days I was king Ain't nothing left now but the same old blues I sing Gave up everything, baby I give up everything for you I got nothing left to lose I gave up everything for you, 'cept the blues
