Lyrics
Don't know who said life was easy
Ain't always blue skies and breezy
And I'm the guy who's still paying dues
You won't hear this cat complaining
'Cause I stay dry when it's raining
Wrapped in the rhythm, the rhythm of the blues
Some people find the groove gloomy
But it does something else to me
Blues blow a beat and I simply can't refuse
That bittersweet fascination
Is my kind of indigo inclination
My destination
The rhythm of the blues
Blues, somehow you always make me feel
You live in the heart of what is real
Day and night you are the one who's sworn true
To the few born to be blue
And dig a gig in a jive joint
Some dusty dark after five joint
It's down to my soul, boy, and I ain't talking shoes
I gave up gambling and boozing
My only vice now is bluesing
And Betty Ford couldn't make me lose
My one addiction, the rhythm of the blues
Don't quite make sense, that's a true thing
Why I'm a fool for a blue thing
And melancholy was meant to be my muse
But when that groove hits the pocket
I hop a heavenly rocket
Head for a blue moon and set myself on cruise
Who knows what's coming tomorrow
Pour a little sunshine over that sorrow
Beg, steal or borrow the rhythm of the blues
I love the rhythm of the blues
Long as I'm with 'em I can't lose
I guess by now you've heard the news
I love the rhythm of the blues
