A Minor Variation

Lyrics

Some days I have to give right in to the blues
 Despite how I try to keep fightin'
 It's a sure shot I'm going to lose
 And I'll tell you why
 You think I'm crazy
 It's such a sad composition
 But can you blame me
 For what's been causing my bad disposition?
 Ain't nothing new with my blue situation
 And nothing's fine, it's just a minor variation
 When troubles want to find me, I ain't hard to find
 They know where I am
 Like a hungry pack of wolves when it's feeding time
 They tear up a man
 And it's a strange thing
 Cause now it don't really matter
 More of the same thing
 Don't even hurt it's been part of the pattern
 But still in all it's a small consolation
 I just define it as a minor variation
 Ain't now way to fight 'em darling
 Ain't no way around 'em baby
 Ain't now way to take 'em honey
 Nowhere to hide and believe me I've tried to shake 'em
 I'm getting to the point where I don't feel the pain
 And I've had enough
 I'm ready for the next time it hits me again
 Cause I've gotten tough
 It doesn't faze me
 And now I've made my decision
 I may be crazy
 It's not as though I don't know that condition
 Until I'm through with this blue situation
 Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation
 Ain't nobody's business, baby
 Ain't nobody's worry darlin'
 Ain't nobody's problem
 No way to win when you've already been forgotten
 And it's a strange thing
 Cause now it don't really matter
 More of the same thing
 Don't even hurt, it's a part of the pattern
 Until I'm through with this blue situation
 Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation
