lyrics

Help me mama help me papa
I got a mean old woman who is trying to stop me
From walkin out my door and stomping on my floor all night

Well life was good but it spit in my face
and then it leaved without a trace
and you wonder why I'm playing the blues

Come on Tell me why I can't stop cryin'?
Tell Me, when will the world stop lying?
Tell me, why i can't stop playing these blues?

Mama said; "behind every cloud there's a brand new sun,
And behind every day, there's another one.
Don't give up boy it'll all be better someday.

Well now, life was good, but it spit in my face
and then it leaved without a trace
and you wonder why I'm playing these blues

Come on Tell me why I can't stop cryin'?
Tell Me, when will the world stop lying?
Tell me, why i can't stop playing these blues?
