When Smokey Sings - ABC

When this old world gets the, the best of me Life don't come quite so easily The only thing that brings a little peace to me Is when the lady sings the blues The wolves keep knocking on my front door (my front door) I just can't seem to pay the rent no more The one thing that I keep longing for (longing for) Is when the lady sings the blues Singin' 'bout the hard time, standin' in the silver line Prayin' help is on the way Feelin' kind of helpless, hopin' for some kindness Waitin' on that sunshiny day Just when I think I'm gonna, gonna come on wild Feels like the walls just start toppling down The one thing that keeps me hanging around (hanging around) Is when the lady sings the blues Singin' 'bout the hard time, standin' in the silver line Prayin' help is on the way Feelin' kind of helpless, hopin' for some kindness Waitin' on that sunshiny day "Good Morning, Heartache" by Lady 'Day "God Bless The Child", who chased my blues away And "Ain't Nobody's Business" gonna get me through When the lady sings the blues Ain't it nice what a little moonlight can do?
