Just when it really feels that love is gone
I should've known that you would come along
I can't believe I ever doubted you
My old friend the blues

Another lonely night
In this old town
If sleep don't take me fast
You'll come around
'Cause I know I can always count on you
My old friend the blues

Lovers leave and friends will let you down
You're the only sure thing that I've found
No matter what I do I'll never leave
My old friend the blues

Just let me hide my weary heart in you
My old friend the blues
