written by Gwendolyn Collins
performed by Jonny Lang
of the album Lie to me

Oh, there's got to be a change
things just can't stay the same
if I got any worse off
I'd have myself to blame

I've played the blues so long now
there ain't nothin' left for me to do
I just can't give it up
if I do my life would be through

Well now I've been to Kentucky, Chicago too
all over St. Louis, ain't nothin' left to do, baby
but I'll play the blues for you, yes I will
well I've been down to Texas
to the international revenue

I ain't got no money now, honey now
ain't nothin' left to do
well I'll play the blues for you
