Lyric Can t Play The Blues In An Airconditioned Room

All my life i had to struggle, i paid some heavy dues
Squeekin out a livin , playin easy blues
Then one day my music made me a millionaire
I bought a big old mansion with central heated air
Now i got more money than i know how to use
Got everything a man could want, but i ain t got no blues
Success for me could only lead to my immediate doom
cause i can t play the blues in an airconditioned room

Now i was doin better with a smaller piece of pie
But all my fame and fortune i can t identify
I lost the inspiration that came natural in the start
I have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heart
Now my life s too easy, i d be getting soft
I used to play the blues all day, but now i just play golf
Now all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too
cause i can t play the blues in an airconditioned room


You know what i m saying
It s kinda hard to play the blues
If you don t have any problems


You might think i m crazy, you might think i m strange
The first thing in the morning i m gonna make a change
I throw away my money, i move back to that shag
Do whatever i gotta do to get that old feelin back
I know i d be feelin better with nothing left to lose
When times are bad, the less i had, the better i played the blues
I buy myself some turkey and wine, and howl it at the moon
cause i can t play the blues in an airconditioned room


If i should die tomorrow you can write it on my tomb
he couldn t play the blues in an airconditioned room
