I dont ride in no Limosine's
Can't afford no night club scenes
Steak and wine is beyond my means
I call my home these faded jeans
Well I got just enough money to buy me a
Case of the blues I got just enough money
To buy me a case of the blues oh yeah
Found me a quarter in the combat zone
I reach up and stick it in the old pay phone
My baby's machine is sayin' she's not home
Just leave your name and your number
After the tone
Now I got just enough money to buy me
A case of the blues yeah I just enough money
To buy me a case of the blues oh oh yeah
I got just enough money to buy me a case of the
Blues
You know the days too long
When your down on your luck
I never get no good news
I've been broke so long, the only thing I can buy
Is a bad case of the blues oh yeah
Baby,buy me the blues
Ran into this joker in his Cadillac
He owed me some dough he wanted to pay it back
He said you can double your money,at the pony track
But my horse didn't finish, had a heart attack
Now I got just enough money to buy me a case
Of the blues yeah I got just enough money
To buy me a case of the blues oh yeah
I got just enough money to buy me a case of the blues
Oh yeah got just enough money
To buy me a case of the blues oh yeah
Hey,hey just enough money to buy me the blues
