[Verse 1]
Defeat at life is full of sunshine
You break it even and pay your dues
Get ready for the hit
Watch your step or you will slit
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
Voodoo and black magic go together
They cookin' like a magic stew
When you think you got it all
Get ready for the fall
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
[Chorus]
Spread the news
Here come the heavy blues
Spread the news
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
Watch out
[Verse 2]
We gotta find a road to travel
Find happiness wherever we choose
Just be careful what you want
Cause it all goes back to hunt
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
Heavy blues is gonna fall on you
We're playing cards against the dealer
We all say we are bound to lose
Your three aces just won't do
Cause your dealer's got four twos
Heavy blues are gonna fall on you
Heavy blues are gonna fall on you
[Chorus]
Spread the news
Here come the heavy blues
Spread the news
Heavy blues are gonna fall on you
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Spread the news
Here come the heavy blues
Spread the news
Heavy blues are gonna fall on you
[Outro]
Heavy blues gonna fall
Gonna knock you down
