Unsung Hero of the Blues

Lyrics

[ Chorus ] I am a hero An unsung hero of the blues I am a hero I'm an unsung hero of the blues If they gave awards for sorrow Oh, I'd win quite a few [ Verse 1 ] My landlord takes my money, but he says I'll get it back He calls it a deposit, I say "We'll see about that" And I get this funny feelin' as I hold my baby tight I know she said she loved me, but something isn't right [ Chorus ] I am a hero An unsung hero of the blues I am a hero I'm an unsung hero of the blues If they gave awards for sorrow Oh, I'd win quite a few [ Verse 2 ] My boss is on my back, he won't leave me alone I rеally think I'm gonna crack if I hear one more phonе The raise he said he'd give me, he's already taking back And everytime I think you want me, I'm on the wrong track [ Chorus ] I am a hero A unsung hero of the blues I am a hero I'm a unsung hero of the blues If they gave awards for sorrow I'd win quite a few [ Verse 3] I'm going for a check up, he says I smoke too much I tell him I got problems and the smoking's just a crutch He puts me on a diet, it would'nt feed a mouse And the bill for the trip, could pay the mortgage on my house [ Chorus ] I am a hero An unsung hero of the Blues I am a hero The unsung hero of the Blues If they gave awards for sorrow Oh, I'd win quite a few I am a hero An unsung hero of the Blues I am a hero I'm the unsung hero of the Blues If they gave awards for sorrow Oh, I'd win quite a few I am a hero An unsung hero of the Blues The hero The unsung hero of the Blues If they gave awards for sorrow Oh, I'd win quite a few
