Get with it, you don’t know when you got the blues
Lotta people don’t know
I don’t know
When you really got the blues
You start coming home, late that night
Yeah
You meet your cat coming out the drive way and the first thing you meet
The first thing he says to ya “she ain’t her, she ain’t here, she ain’t here”
You know then you got the blues man
Woaoowwww
You got the blues
Get in the house, you know what it’s all about
Look in the closet, she got all her clothes out, you got the blues then
That’s when you got the blues
Ask me if I had the blues
