No Count Blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You hear the hate in their voices Even with a smile on their face If you're not strong in your choices They'll put you back in your place [Pre-Chorus 1] Now I've invested my timeline Spoken to a lot of people I've come to the conclusion That no one rides for free [Chorus] Lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues [Verse 2] You hear the hate in their voices All while they spit in your face If you're not strong in your choices All that you've built they erase [Pre-Chorus 2] I used to think we wore masks But now I look around and see Who are these other people Looking back at me? [Chorus] Lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues [Bridge] Paycheck blues Laid off blues Shameful blues No count blues You wanna see me shaking it a little now? They know what I'm talkin' I think it's time to get up so we can get down Let's get to it And I ain't stayin' here no more You know what I'm talkin' about [Chorus] No more lowdown, broke up, hungry, poor man Listless, beat up, dirty, sorry Hard luck, senseless, forlorn no count blues
