Some of Shelly’s Blues

Tell me, just one more time, the reasons why you must leave
Tell me once more why you're sure you don't need me
Tell me again, but don't think that you'll convince me

Now you've said, before falling in love again you'd rather be dead
'Cause when someone breaks your heart, you cry your eyes red
But there's nothing so hard about the life that you've led

As far as I can see
There's no reason for goodbyes
You're just runnin' scared
And that's something I won't buy

So you lose
I won't let you go with nothing to show but more blues
And all this talk about leaving is strictly bad news
So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you

So you lose
I won't let you go with nothing to show but more blues
And all this talk about leaving is strictly bad news
So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you
Yes, you settle down and stay with the man that loves you
Yes, you settle down and stay with me, babe
