Now there lotsa things that gimme the Blues
like no money in my pocket  or a hole in my shoe
when I got a Cigarette but I aint got a light
when the people I meet don`t treat me right

Theres one thing I got that helps me through.......I got you

When I get to the station and the train is gone
No long distance line on the Telephone
Drive in my Car and run outta Gas
Talk to a Woman get my face slapped

Theres one thing I got that helps me through........I got you

Now I don`t like people talkin down to me
I don`t like Drugs and they don`t like me
Apply for a job get no reply
beggars in the city with no hope in their eyes

Theres one thing I got that helps me through.......I got you

Guitar Solo..........................................

Play my Guitar but the strings is broke
a good friend of mine trippin out on dope
Kids on the Street with nowhere to go
A loudmouth DJ on the Radio

Theres one thing I got that helps me through.....I got you

Whisky in the Bottle thats watered down
The Atomic plant on the edge of town
TV Talkshows talkin shit
Boys in the Warzone takin Hits

Theres one thing I got that helps me through....I got you

Now all of these things make the world seem bad
got you feeling blue make you feel real sad
so let the good times roll come what may
enjoy yourself you might Die today

Theres one thing you got that helps you through....you got you
Lotsa Things

This is a  song I wrote many years ago about some of the things that
irritate me. It is interesting to noter that some of the Things mentioned have become absolutely irrelevant in Today`s digital and Networked world.
For example "A Long distance line on the Telephone".
If you asked  someone about that you may well reap questioning  Looks
or a "What are you talking About?"
