Shotgun Blues Songtext
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 and 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.

{Depending on which version you have...}
Elwood!
(Harmonica solo)

{or}
Matt "Guitar" Murphy!
(Guitar solo)

I've 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, tried to stand up,
keep on falling down.
Tried to stand up,
keep on falling down.
Everywhere I go,
the blues is all around.
