Lyrics

A hundred thousand dollars
Wouldn't touch the price I paid
Of the hundred thousand moments
Of the times I wish I'd stayed
But even if I had all the time and money
It's still the same old news
Nothing does you any good
When you got 2000 blues
Ten thousand clouds
On a rainy rainy day
Couldn't wash away
All the dust and the haze
But I tried and I tried
To search for all the clues
Why I can't wash away
These 2000 blues
If I had an airplane
With a co-pilot too
I'd fly to a planet
That was closest to you
I'd set the tracking system
With your safety fuse
And set the countdown
The 2000 blues
2000 blues
2000 blues
2000 blues
Written by: Billy F Gibbons, Dusty Hill, Frank Beard
