Blues Is a Bad Habit

Heard the blues on the radio

Man it hits me like a hammer blow

I had a friend he played guitar

Got on the road and we hit the charts

We made the dives and we scored the dope

We drove the back roads earning our dough

Yes, the blues is a bad habit

Shows no mercy when you get it

Yeah, the blues, oh yeah the blues is a bad habit

Just another whistle-stop

White line fever will drop the clock

Time passes by and sleep won't come

So many places to do our songs

Yes, the blues is a bad habit

Shows no mercy when you get it

Yeah, the blues, oh yeah the blues is a bad habit

Last night we slept at the heartbreak hotel

For some reasons we didn't feel too well

Time's running out getting older every day

The only thing that's left for us is hit the road and play

Oh yes, the blues is a bad habit

Shows no mercy when you get it

Yeah, the blues, oh yeah the blues is a bad habit
