                                A Night In The Life Of A Blues Singer

                                             (Lynott) 



                                          In the old days

                                       I could sing the blues

                                       I had nothin' to live for

                                        And nothin' to lose

                                          And all the time

                                       I was paying my dues

                                      Like an old blues singer



                                     And I had no troubles then

                                      But I had lots of friends

                                      Friends they come and go

                                   And sometimes friendship ends

                            All the time, I've had a friend on whom I depend

                                          So blues singer

                                              Oh...



                               Oh mama, mama, mama, this is your boy

                        Oh mama, mama, mama, mama, my soul's been destroyed

                                 Oh mama, mama, your pride and joy

                                         Is a blues singer

                                        An old blues singer



                                      And the party's over now

                                      Everybody's goin' home

                                       The band is packin' up

                                        And I'm on my own

                                  Oh, but I miss you now you're gone

                                   Mama, your boy's a blues singer

                                      Such an old blues singer



                                   Nothin, oh but nothin's changed

                              Oh sometimes you win sometimes you lose

                                          I lost ya mama

                                          I lost ya mama



                                          In the old days

                                       I could sing the blues

                                       Had nothin' to live for

                                        And nothin' to lose

                                          But all the time

                                          You must chose

                                       I'm an old blues singer

                                              Oh...
