Karl Berringer - Bummed Out Blues lyrics

[Hook]: I'm bummed Again, I always seem to find myself feeling like we're old friends Ooooh Now I'm numb I've succumbed To the ruder attitudes of bums All the chaps who flap their little gums to get me bummed [Verse One]: What's up poor friend, it looks like it's me and you again s**ing on this cigarette while I'm sipping on this Hen It's been a minute since we kicked it I admit it's not always the best conditions that I get a chance to kick it with ya But here we are, sitting in my car Down on our luck, looking up at the stars The good times seem so far away The last time I felt happy? Man, it's really hard to say Listening to chumps got me down in the dumps I'm guessing that what they want is to have me in a slump Tried to get over the hump but couldn't carry the load Fell flat on my face at the fork in the road Under so much pressure it was easy to fold All my funny style friends left me out in the cold See I was told That hard times travel fast So it didn't take long for them to bite me in the a** [Bridge]: You shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right [Hook]: I'm bummed Again, I always seem to find myself feeling like we're old friend Ooooh Now I'm numb I've succumbed To the ruder attitudes of bums All the chaps who flap their little gums to get me bummed [Verse Two]: I got my elbows on my knees I'm in a deep freeze Them ice cold blues got me lost out at sea Trapped in my feelings now the floor is my ceiling Locked in a spin cycle but my friends think I'm chilling A spin doctor I pop pills then vodka Concoct a co*ktail to get me through this soap opera I'm on the top then my life's on the rocks It's like it's my own cyclone, when will it stop? Drop to my knees and I plead for the better days Had lots of dreams but it seems I've been led astray Dismay and doubt, which way is out? Struggling with doubt as I scream and I shout for help But it falls on deaf ears It seems like the blues are getting all of my best years Tears fall on hard times it don't make 'em soft I twist up a two step hoping I can shuck 'em off [Bridge]: You shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right Shuffle with your left Shuffle with your right [Hook]: I'm bummed Again, I always seem to find myself feeling like we're old friend Ooooh Now I'm numb I've succumbed To the ruder attitudes of bums All the chaps who flap their little gums to get me bummed
