The Blues Brothers - Shot Gun Blues lyrics

Every night I go to sleep The blues fall down like rain Every night I go to sleep The blues fall down like rain Taking pills, cheap whiskey Just to try to ease the pain Well it's hard to gamble When you lose every bet Hard to save money When you're twenty years in debt The blues is falling Falling down on me like rain I'm gonna take a shotgun now people And disconnect my brain Matt 'Guitar' Murphy! I made some mistakes Had some bad breaks Now my mind don't work And my whole body aches The blues is falling Falling down on me like rain My life is like water Just swirling down the drain Well I tried standin' up I keep on falling down Tried standing up Keep on fallin' down Everywhere I go The blues is all around
