歌曲 | Everything I Know About The Blues |
歌手 | Delbert McClinton |
专辑 | Room to Breathe |
作词 : McClinton, Nicholson, Tench | |
I learned to swim when daddy threw me in the river | |
The Army taught me how to shine my shoes | |
The years have shown me that nothin' lasts forever | |
But everything I know about the blues | |
I learned from you | |
I thought I'd seen my share of bad luck and hard times | |
But nothin' set me up for what you put me through | |
I learned a lesson that will hurt me for a lifetime | |
'Cause everything I know about the blues | |
I learned from you | |
I know that promises are things that just get broken | |
And you can't trust a woman's tears | |
And if love is what you place your hope in | |
All your hope may disappear | |
In certain circles I've aquired a reputation | |
But I give credit where credit is due | |
Yes it's true I got a first rate education | |
'Cause everything I know about the blues | |
I learned from you |
