Blues, why you worry me 
Why do you stay so long 
You came to me yesterday 
and you stayed the whole night long 

I will listen to my people 
My friends and nobody else 
I will listen to my people 
My friends and nobody else 
I had to make mistakes in life 
I had to learn it all for myself 

I learn to smile at trouble 
I won`t let it get me down 
I learn to smile at trouble 
I won`t let it get me down 
I`ll keep on keepin` on 
`Till the last deal goes down
