Humdrum Blues

A couple thousand days full of every emotion

It’s enough to know a woman as much as a man can

But still don’t quite feel it’s the proper devotion

To ensure that we can both withstand

All of the distractions

So hard to keep your head from out of the clouds

She’ll never have her satisfaction

Unless she’s sure that we’re both strapped down

She’s so tired of the humdrum and I understand

She wants something tangible, like a ring on her hand

And she’s tired of my reasons

She’s so tired of my broke ass life

And I understand her pleading

And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife

A couple thousand days full of every emotion

It’s enough to know a woman as much as a man can

And it’s not enough to keep her from wondering what I do when I’m gone

She’s so tired of the humdrum and I understand

She wants something tangible, like a ring on her pretty little hand

And she’s tired of my reasons

She’s so tired of my broke ass life

And I understand her pleading

And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife

All of the distractions

So hard to keep your head from out of the clouds

She’ll never have her satisfaction

Unless she’s sure that we’re both strapped down

I never wanted money

Never wanted to chase these dragons

Not afraid of being lonely

But if she leaves I don’t know what’ll happen

She’s tired of the humdrum and I understand

She wants something tangible, like a ring on her pretty little hand

And she’s tired of my reasons

She’s so tired of my broke ass life

And I understand her pleading

And she’s leaving unless I make her my wife
