Текст Billy Joe Shaver – Lately I’ve Been Leaning Towards The Blues

Lately I been leanin’ toward the blues
Lazy, loafin’, good for nothin’, no count knock around
Ain’t been worth a honkin’ dime since country come to town
I tell ya, boys, this workin’ up to somethin’s got me down to nothin’ left to lose

Lately I been leanin’ toward the blues
I’ve been leanin’ lately toward the blues
Done held onto it ’til I can’t turn loose

Everything is everything, everybody knows
We can’t get nowhere by steppin’ on each other’s toes
When it comes to cuttin’ corners, honey, anyway you get here is just fine
Lately we been pickin’ double time

Lately I been leanin’ toward the blues
I been leanin’ lately toward the blues
Done wore a soul in my ol’ holy shoes, got it all
