Shot Gun Blues Lyrics - Briefcase Full Of Blues - Blues Brothers

Every night I go to sleep, the blues fall down like rain 

Every night I go to sleep, the blues fall down like rain 

Takin' pills and cheap whiskey, just to try to ease the pain 

It's hard to gamble when you lose every bet 

Hard to save money when you're twenty years in debt 

The blues is fallin', fallin' down on me like rain 

I'm gonna take a shotgun now, people, and disconnect my brain 

I made some mistakes, had some bad breaks 

Now my mind don't work and my whole body aches 

Blues is fallin', fallin' down on me like rain 

My life is like water, just swirlin' down the drain 

Tried standin' up, keep on fallin' down 

Tried standin' up, keep on fallin' down 

Everywhere I go the blues is all around
