When you're young
You think you're old
Sick and tired, oh
'cause blues is when
You walk alone
Knee deep in mud
It’s been a hard day
Oh, there's too much pain
In this unholy world
Ain't gonna fix a thing
Everything's out of control
All dogs bark at you
They know you’re done
You're of no use
'cause you're too drunk
But they don't know why, yeah
There's a smile on your face
Your walk is a dance
That sets your eyes ablaze
Well, it's your fate
The bluesman’s luck
It's been a hard day
Oh, you're of no use
Your walk is a dance
And you're so amused
Oh, you're truly free
Yeah, truly free
You got all night ahead
The rock bottom's far
Well, it's your fate
The bluesman's luck
If they don't get it
You ain't gonna give a fuck
