No Escape from the Blues lyrics

Well somebody made a mistake
When they said life was a bowl of fruit
You know I had to go downtown
And pawn my last suit
Well, I could see I was born to lose
And for me there ain't no escape from the blues

You know I haven't seen or heard from my woman
Since the last day I got paid
She said, "Son if you ain't got no money
I ain't gonna hang around and be your maid"
Well, I could see I was born to lose
For me there ain't no escape from the blues

Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry
I got to go to the welfare house
You know, I got to get myself a few stamps
So I can get mysеlf a cup of coffee
Well, you know, I can see I was born to lose
And for me thеre ain't no escape from the blues

You know I had worn out my shoes
And now I'm wearing out my socks
Well, I ain't got no rent to pay
I ain't got no job
Well, I can see I was born to lose
And for me there ain't no escape from the blues
