Tom Smith I Ain't Got Time for the Blues song lyrics

Woke up this morning, fell outa bed and got dressed,

Burnt my eggs, toast, and newspaper -- wish I could get depressed,

But I ain't got time for the blues -- better give it a rest.

The neighbor's dog attacked me, bit my leg clean through,

I'd locked my keys in my car, and when I got in, the radiator blew,

But I ain't got time for the blues -- I got things to do.

My girlfriend up and left me, and so did my wife,

I had lunch at the Japanese steakhouse --

shouldn'ta tried to juggle the sushi knife,

But I ain't got time for the blues -- I gotta get on with my life.

Headed for the highway, didn't see the sign that said yield,

Got intimate with a semi, ended up in an open field,

Well, now I've got time for the blues -- Blue Cross and Blue Shield.
