Blues Tonic

Blues Tonic

Nuthin’ like playin’ the blues

Makes your soul sing and you’re on cruise

Can’t find an angry man when he strummin’ those tunes

Bringin’ a sad heart up from the depths of the booze

You see you fly above the dirty ooze

Away from the gutter of sadness and sleaze

It may seem ironic to those without this tonic

But not from the side of the blues sonic

Neutralizes the ache of she’s gone and thrown you in the lake

When you’re playin’ you’re smilin’ and feelin’ the music’s shake

You want to spread the feelin’ of an angel kneelin’

For this’s heaven with emotions heavin’

Its divinity’s own pickin’

Those blues chords ringin’

Celebratin’ risin’ from down there in nuthiin’

Now you can see the next woman comin’
