Albert King - That's What The Blues Is All About lyrics
Oh, you come home one evenin'
 To nothin' but the four walls
 And then ya find your phone been disconnected
 You can't even make no call
 Ya hung out for your baby
 Oh, an' she's not there
 You look in the closet, buddy
 An' you find it's all bare
 Oh, that's what the blues is people
 That's what the blues is all about
 Well that's a hard pill you have to swallow, um!
 When you find what the blues is all about
Now listen to this
 I went out to my backyard
 Ya know I whistled for my dog
 He ran up under the house, people
 Like he didn't even know me at all
 Now I hadn't fed him in two or three days
 An' he was lookin' kinda thin
 Oh, when your dog turn his back on ya, buddyAlbert King - That's What The Blues Is All About - http://motolyrics.com/albert-king/thats-what-the-blues-is-all-about-lyrics.html
 You know ya haven't even got a friend
 That's the blues, people
 That's what the blues is all about
 Oh it's a hard pill to swallow, um!
 When ya find out what the blues is all about
 Oh, look out! Uh!
 Oh no! I think I got 'em!
 I went out to my mail box
 I got a bunch-a bills that I can't pay
 I guess my wife been out shoppin' again
 While I been at work all day
 I see the man comin' with his tools
 Now is he gonna cut off my water?
 You know they got my gas yesterday
 An' they comin' right back for the lines tomorrow
 Ah, that's what the blues is people
 That's what the blues is all about
 Oh, that's a hard pill to swallow, buddy
 When you find out what the blues is all about
