Letra de Prosperity Blues (Album Version)
I used to only know, tears in my eyes And I could never see, the sun in the sky I lived so long, with a thorn in my side And I got so used to being, unsatisfiedNow I'm happy, just sittin' round the house My bills are paid, and my checks don't bounce I can't even, crack a frown Since the blues slipped out of townI used to work my, little fingers down to the bone And my baby was asleep, by the time I got home I couldn't go nowhere, cause my engine was blown The operator used to always, turn off my phoneAnd now my bill collectors, they don't never come around My car is runnin', and it don't break down I can't even crack a frown Since the blues slipped out of townMy baby left me, but she came right back When I gave her the keys, to that brand new Cadillac I can't even crack a frown Since the blues slipped out of townI ain't never been so down
