I used to play the blues
Minor keys and sevens
Were predominately used
As my source of self-expression
Every night I partied
Malt liquor, wine and gin
When one woman left another one walked in

My anger made me edgy
Defiance made me cool
I was nobody's plaything
I was nobody's fool
My independent nature
Inspired all my songs
Until that fateful day you came along

You taught me to be gentle, you taught me to be kind
I learned the sure surrender love affords
Now the minor scales' forbidden, replaced by six and nines
That is why you'll only hear me play these pussy chords

Now I write for elevators
Nursing homes and malls
The money's fine, but still sometimes
I can't help but recall
When I used to have the mojo
And it seems a so much to lose
So baby won't you give me back my blues

I'd do anything if you would only
Go away and leave me lonely
Baby won't you give me back my blues
Baby won't you give me back my blues
