Beggar for the Blues
[Spoken]
Yes, wild is love
And wherever it takes me, I must go
[Verse 1]
When love smiles at me, I just can't refuse
Don't care if I cry till the tears run down my shoes
I ask for it every time
'Cause I'm a beggar for the blues
[Verse 2]
When love pulls me in like an undertow
If I gotta die, that's the way I wanna go
Don't care if I win or lose
'Cause I'm a beggar for the blues
[Verse 3]
I'd say goodbye
But then I ask myself "what for?"
I know that I would only hurry back for more
[Verse 4]
I know I'm a fool, got no alibis
My heart's been to school but I never will get wise
I live in the way that I choose
'Cause I'm a beggar for the blues
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 4 - Altered]
I know I'm a fool, got no alibis
My heart's been to school but I never will get wise
I live in the way that I choose
'Cause I'm a beggar for the blues
I live in the way that I choose
'Cause I'm a beggar for the blues
