I had a dream of the future
Storm clouds had gathered above

A blues that spread like a wildfire

'could only beat this with love

I’m gonna fight this and be strong
No fear gonna come round my way

Together we'll fight the battle
Blues you’ve out welcomed your stay

Gonna tilt my face up,

The future’s bright ahead,

Gotta get my hope on

Gonna lift my head high,

Gotta get my faith strong

Can I get an oh yeah,

Blues go away

Sun’s gonna shine, things'll get better

Clouds gotta get moving on
We conquer this thing together
Blues gonna go, gonna stay strong

Blues gonna go, gonna stay strong

I’ve lived in the lonely city
I crawled out from the lonely city, singin’...

Now I’m back in my hometown county
Doin’ jack in my hometown county, singin’...

I can’t make no God damn money
I just can’t make no money, singin’...

I travel to the busy city,
I crawl out to the busy city, singin’...

There I’m gonna make me some money,
People there gonna give me some money, while they’re singin’...

Got a song for the busy city,
I wrote a song for the busy city,
But will they ever stop and listen...? Please stop and listen...

Soul Sister, won’t you talk to me
Noose around my neck, the way it’s always been
And I can’t get ahead, ‘cause I keep slip slip slipping away
Soul Brother won’t you walk with me
Weights around my feet the way it’s always been
And I can’t get ahead, ‘cause I keep slip slip slipping away yeah
Be thankful for the lot that you’ve got and no more
Be thankful for the lot that you’ve got and no more, no more, no more.

I'm going back home this time,
Way back to where I belong,
I left a long time ago,
Don't recognise it no more,

Woah Yeah Yeah

She left me nothing to keep, Yeah,
Shot like a dog in the street,
But I trust her every time,
Can't get the girl off my mind,

Woah Yeah Yeah

So much for a happy end,
Took right off with my best friend,
Now I'm going home again,
For the first time in a while,

I'm going back home this time,
Way back to where I belong,
I left a long time ago,
Don't recognize it no more

I 'been shaking in my boots too long.

Lookin' out babe, how these boots are made, God made them for walking,
You know I couldn't help and stop when I heard, heard those people talking,
The Lord went for these lonely walks, now it won't be long till the hailstorm starts,
I don't wanna be here no more, what am I waiting for.

Lord, Lord, Lord don't let me down,
Lord, Lord, I'm on shaky ground.

Moving right along after the storm the dawn is drawing night,
My heart is breaking my legs are shaking, here comes another night,
The stars will soon be shining bright, got to get my head right,
It might be a long walk, you know I can't stop.

Lord, Lord, Lord don't let me down,
Lord, Lord, I'm on shaky ground.

Now I've walked for miles, feeling sanctified,
I was high when the skies turned blue at night,
I was just a little girl and every time my hair would curl,
Little boy blue he was a prince, he just walked by.

Lord, Lord, Lord don't let me down,
Lord, Lord, I'm on shaky ground.
