These Would Be Blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm a certain kind of man with a certain kind of wound I'm hungry and I'm aching from my soul down to my shoes Everything you need to know you'll pick up from the clues in these would be blues [Chorus] Lay your burden down Lay your burden down [Verse 2] My legs are weak and weary as I walk among the dead I fear that I might lose my mind or is that in my head? It's hard to be unquestioning with all that has been said (plus these would be blues in my bed) [Verse 3] The world it swims around me as I slip into the lake At first it feel untimely and a terrible mistake I'd better take my medicine and give myself a break from these would be blues on the make [Chorus] Lay your burden down Lay your burden down [Verse 4] I'm a certain kind of man with a certain kind of wound I'm hungry and I'm aching from my soul down to my shoes Come down from that auction block and stroll into the town Meet me there at six fifteen and lay your burden down [Outro] Lay your burden down Lay your burden down Lay your burden down Lay your burden down You've got to lay your burden down Lay your burden down Lay your burden down Lay your burden down
