Blues Overtook Me

The blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 When I was a kid, early on my own
 I took the highway to be my home
 The blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 I ain't complainin'
 ♪
 Dark and cloudy, I believe it's gonna rain
 Makes me wonna hear my baby call my name
 The blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 ♪
 When you get in trouble, everybody's down on you
 The blues'll overtake you, and pull you on through
 You know blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 Just tryin' to have some fun
 ♪
 Hand me down my suitcase, pack up my trunk
 I ain't be drinkin', blues made me drunk
 The blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 You might run and try to escape
 The blues will overtake you one rainy day
 Blues overtook me
 When I was a little child
 You know fast women and whiskey
 Made this poor boy wild
 That's alright

 Yeah, the blues overtook me
 I ain't lyin'
