This joyful existence It's not what it could be I can't lose all this loneliness Where is my liberty
And when the blues has Shaken up my mind Well, I knew this blues Sure the shakin' kind
Give me a drink of immortality I need the nectar of divine A short embrace of insanity A kiss of will do That would still be fine
* Bad wind (It's) A real bad wind Bad wind A real bad wind Bad wind If it don't blow somebody some good
(* Repeat)
I know Things don't always go my way I own these blues And I'll pay you someday
Now I'm as broke As a poor man can be Somebody pay the piper To let my spirit free
(* Repeat)
It's a real bad wind If it don't blow somebody some good
Give me a drink of immortality Give me the nectar of divine Must be a real bad wind Bad wind A real bad wind Bad wind It's a real bad wind Bad wind A real bad wind
