Rex's Blues

Ride the blue wind high and free
 She'll lead you down through misery
 Leave you low come time to go
 Alone and low as low can be
 If I had a nickel I'd find a game
 If I won a dollar I would make it rain
 If it rained an ocean I'd drink it dry
 And lay me down dissatisified
 Legs to walk and thoughts to fly
 Eyes to laugh and lips to cry
 A restless tongue to classify
 All born to grow and grown to die
 Tell my baby I said so long
 Tell my mother I did no wrong
 Tell my brother to watch his own
 Tell my friends to mourn me none
 Chained upon the face of time
 Feeling full of foolish rhyme
 There ain't no dark 'til something shines
 I'm bound to leave this dark behind
 Ride the blue wind high and free
 She'll lead you down through misery
 Leave you low come time to go
 Alone and low as low can be
