The Blues Made Me Do It

When I was younger
I was wild and irresponsible
The blues made me do that
It was just like I had no choice

When I was your lover
I was persuaded by another
The blues made me do that baby
It was like I could not help myself

When I was unhappy
I took it out on those who loved me
The blues made me do that baby
It was just like I had no choice

When I was happy
I always did something to screw it up
The blues made me do that, yes they did
Like I could not help myself

Yes, the blues made me do that
It was just like I had no choice
