A Night In The Life Of A Blues Singer - Thin Lizzy

Phil Lynott

In the old days

I could sing the blues

I had nothin' to live for

And nothin' to lose

And all the time

I was paying my dues

Like an old blues singer

And I had no troubles then

But I had lots of friends

Friends they come and go

And sometimes friendship ends

All the time I've had a friend on whom I depend

So blues singer

Oh

Oh mama mama mama this is your boy

Oh mama mama mama mama my soul's been destroyed

Oh mama mama your pride and joy

Is a blues singer

An old blues singer

And the party's over now

Everybody's goin' home

The band is packin' up

And I'm on my own

Oh but I miss you now you're gone

Mama your boy's a blues singer

Such an old blues singer

Nothing oh but nothin's changed

Oh sometimes you win sometimes you lose

I lost ya mama

I lost ya mama

In the old days

I could sing the blues

Had nothin' to live for

And nothin' to lose

But all the time

You must chose

I'm an old blues singer

Oh
