Sick Man Blues Lyrics

Sick Man Blues
Bobby Long

The darkness hides your eyes
Though its not for me to tell
You never treat me kind
You think that Im unwell
It's such a shame
It's such a shame

You tried to give me up
You flirted with my time
I guess you broke the promise
You made somewhere down the line
Oh you're a struggle
Oh you're a struggle

You paid for all my pills
And left me in the past
You were a good girl honey
You just couldn't make it last
Your love is like the rhinestone of a plague
So bare in mind the lives that you could save
Im bound to walk the darkness again
Oooh, oooh

I know Im not that easy
To live with day to day
You painted your own picture
And I let you have your say
Ya Im a sinner
Oh Im a sinner
My love it sits untainted
To the riggers of your stare
There aint no body like you
With the fairness of your hair
It leaves me stranded
Oh its leaves me stranded

And this life is too long
Too long for me to keep
Should bare that in mind
And try the pain you reap

Your love is like the rhinestone of a plague
So bare in mind the lives that you could save
Im bound to walk the darkness again
Im bound to walk the darkness again
And Im bound to walk the darkness again
