I been studyin' the rain and I'm 'on drive my blues away.

If you can’t be happy at the prospect of lunch, you are unlikely to be happy about anything

Blues fallin' down like hail And the day keeps on worryin' me There's a hell hound on my trail.

I have pains in my hearts, they have taken my appetite.

Hello Satan, it's time to go. Me and the devil, walkin' side by side.

Actually, I guess I shouldn't be so hard on myself. 2:23:11 is a very good time - a very good time for a woman that is.
