If you got a reason and you feel lowdown Start believin', take a look around A cheatin' lady or a lack of cash Someone goin' round talking trash
Put yourself in my shoes Put your faith in the blues 'Cos when the blues are real bad You know they got to be good for you
A rhythm for beatin' all your aches and pains The power of healin' comin' round again Ease your worries and you'll get your kicks Rockin' pianos and guitar licks
Put yourself in my shoes Put your faith in the blues 'Cos when the blues are real bad You know they got to be good for you
Gather round me, try to understand Nothin' better than a rockin' band Got the boogie woogie and rock and roll Nothin' better to free your soul
Put yourself in my shoes Put your faith in the blues 'Cos when the blues are real bad You know they got to be good for you
