No Use Running From The Blues

Try your pills and powders

Take your drugs of every kind

Try your luck with liquor

Try your luck with beer and wine



[Chorus:]

You can try

Try it any way you choose

You can try it if you want to

But it's no use runnin' from the blues



You tried to throw a party

And the invitations read

All your friends invited

But the blues showed up instead



[Chorus]



You've flown down to Jamaica

And you walked on off the plane

Blues stepped up to greet ya

And he smiled and shook your hand



[Chorus]



It ain't no superstition, child

The blues is really real

Get yourself together

Got to deal with how you feel



[Chorus]
