The Blues Don't Tell It All

Like a steamboat floatin' in a wild monsoon

Woulda' had a better chance to see me through

Tails are high and the winds are bearin' down

Cable touchin' cable, live wires on the ground

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

Diamonds rushing by in a pale gray light

Balck thunder rolling with the crack of steel white

Fever runnin' high, spirit ebbin' low

Caught on the highway with too many mile to go

Maladjusted malcontent

Deliberate deception with a wounded heart

Temptation...

Temptation in an empty world

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

It's a rumored affair

Something cheap in the air

You been playin' for luck

But you always get caught

Double rider on a rain streaked road

Thunder rippin', engine screamin' north

Can't escape a fool in terror

The kiss of death and now you're gone

And once again I'm all alone

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all

The blues don't tell it all
