Blues, why you worry me
  Why do you stay so long
  You came to me yesterday
  and you stayed the whole night long
  
  I will listen to my people
  My friends and nobody else
  I will listen to my people
  My friends and nobody else
  I had to make mistakes in life
  I had to learn it all for myself
  
  I learn to smile at trouble
  I won't let it get me down
  I learn to smile at trouble
  I won't let it get me down
  I'll keep on keepin' on
  'Till the last deal goes down
