Pete Kelly's Blues Lyrics - Bobby Darin

There are sad things 

There are bad things, the blues 

When they threaten, start betting you'll lose 

You hide yourself behind a prayer 

The blues'll come and they'll find you there 

I mean the blues, they call Pete Kelly's Blues 

There's no exit 

You can try the blues 

If you're born with 

You will die with the blues 

Think what you choose 

That happy dream is yours they say 

If you can pay the dues 

That's why I'm stuck with 

Fresh outta luck with the blues 

There's no exit 

None you can try with the blues 

See if you're born with 

You gotta die with the blues 

Think what you choose 

That happy dream is yours they say 

If you can pay the dues 

That's why I'm stuck with 

So outta luck with the blues 

Some call 'em Pete Kelly's Blues 

You can call 'em anything you choose 

I call them blues
