I’m Not Blue

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Well I was thirsty on a Monday, thirsty on a Tuesday, thirsty on a Wednesday, too
I went hungry on a Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
Sunday had a bowl of stew
There ain't no work in this dusty old town
And I'm poorer than a church mouse be
But if the teacher and the preacher look concerned when they meet ya
Well, they ain't got to worry 'bout me

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not blue
No, I'm not blue
I got nothing in the bank
Got nothing in my tank
Ain't even got a dime in my pocket
But I've got you

[Verse 2]
I'm a side-tippy [?]
There's a tear in my jeans
And my boots are worn to the quick
My old friends in town didn't want to stick around
And evеn my dog got sick
My girl took off with a [?] from Kentucky
And a second baby's on the way
But I'vе got all the lovin' I'm ever gonna need right here in this bottle, I say

[Chorus]
No, I'm not blue
No, I ain't blue
I got nothin' to be scared for
Nothin' to care for
Bust my derriere for
Therefore I'm not blue

[Outro]
Cause I've got you
