Keep the Blues Away

Lyrics

[Intro] One, two, three [Verse 1] I  got lost down in Rio I  was running from the FBI Yeah, they had me on some charges back in San Anton' You know I never got the reason why I  turned up in a casino My  hands up and ready to fight The whole damn mariachi band For  playing the same tune twice [Chorus] I get high 'cause I want to I get low every day I get high 'cause I want to Gotta  do something To keep the blues away [Verse 2] You know the last time that I seen her My girl was lookin' mighty fine Starin' through the glass at a police station Just tryna hear the end of the line I know I said it and I mean it I am tryin' to change my life But when times get tough Yeah, the tough get hard You can cut me with a butter knife [Chorus] I get high 'cause I want to I get low every day I get high 'cause I want to Gotta do something To keep the blues away [Chorus] I get high 'cause I want to I get low every day I get high 'cause I want to Gotta do something High 'cause I want to Low every day High 'cause I want to Gotta do something To keep the blues away
