Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My mama left when I was six years old
And I've got nothing but the blues
My father said, "Son, you're on your own"
And I've got nothing but the blues
You know they kicked me out of my high school
And I've got nothing but the blues
Lost all my money trying to shoot some pool
And I've got nothing but the blues
[Chorus]
And I'm fading
Waiting around for someone to save me
And I'm fading
Waiting around for someone to save me, alright
[Verse 2]
I had a girl, and she broke my heart
And I've got nothing but the blues
I tried to leave, but my car won't start
And I've got nothing but the blues
I couldn't drive, so I lost my job
And I've got nothing but the blues
Cops broke in, and they shot my dog
And I've got nothing but the blues
[Chorus]
And I'm fading
Waiting around for someone to save me
Oh, and I'm fading
Waiting around, won't somebody save me, alright
[Chorus]
Oh, and I'm fading
Waiting around and waiting around for someone
Come and save me
Waiting around, won't somebody save me, alright
