major blues

Lyrics

there's sometimes i don't believe in nothing, sometimes i do, that's why it hurts to believe in you, though i know that pain and sorrow, ain't nothing new, it really hurts to be hurt by you, lost my job to no one, lost my baby to another man, that's what i get for going to 'nam, give my life to my country, now they put me on the welfare line, no it won't be water but fire next time, sometimes i want to go back to the city, where i spent my youth, where i had nothing and nothing to lose, someday when this country needs a helping hand, and they want mine, i'll tell them "buddy just get in line", and when my baby comes back crying, cause her lover ain't around no more, i'll kick that smart ass out the door, there's times i don't believe in nothing, sometimes i do, that's why it hurts to believe in you, though i know that pain and sorrow, ain't nothing new, it really hurts to be hurt by you, it really hurts to be hurt by you
