Next Door To the Blues

Sorrow is the street that I'm living on

'Cross Pain Avenue, oh, in a town called Moan

The people I see are sadder than me

A river of tears, don't you know it flows by my door?

And I'm living (next door to the blues)

Yeah, I'm living (next door to the blues)

And after all I've been through, I've had to move, oh, Lord

Next door to the blues (next door to the blues)

Oh, memory, you can tell it in my talk

My heart hurts, oh, even when I walk

I cry on a pillar made of stone

Pity is my name

And that thing called love is to blame

Oh, and I'm living (next door to the blues)

Oh, yeah-yeah, I'm living here (next door to the blues)

After all I've been through, I've had to move, oh Lord

Next door to the blues (next door to the blues)

Oh, bittersweet (bittersweet)

Is the food that I cook

My only joy, oh, is in a storybook

The talk I give, every word brings a tear

Every hello just ends with a sad goodbye

Oh, and I'm living (next door to the blues)

Yeah-yeah, I'm living, yeah (next door to the blues)

Whoa, and after all I've been through, I've had to move, oh, Lord

Next door to the blues (next door to the blues)

Oh, I might have to move (next door to the blues)

'Cross Pain Avenue ('cross Pain Avenue)

In a town called Moan (in a town called Moan)

I'm, I'm all alone (I'm on all alone)

Now what did I say? (Now what did I say?)

Yeah-yeah-yeah (yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
