I'm a slave to this pain that I made and I can't break free It's got a hold on my soul so strong that it won't let me be If I could take it all back I'd give up everything But I'm left here with nothing but these blues to sing Until I find some peace I need a drink to haze there memories I'm working blue, working blue, working blue Tonight I'm working blue, you got me working blue I'm working blue, working blue, working blue You got me working blue I said these scars are so deep I'm cut to the bone Until my conscience leaves this soul alone Until the day I work it through, I'll be working blue I'll be working blue I stand alone a broken man wishing I could right my wrong I can't hide all this hurt deep inside No man is that strong, no, no, no, no, no A little piece of me died when you walked out that door A little bit of my pride that I just can't restore Until the day I'm over you, I'll be working blue I'm working I can't escape from the chains of this shame And it's draggin' me down I've cried an ocean of tears so deep I think I'm about to drown I'm haunted by the things I've said and I've done I'm bound to the blame, It's my only son Until the day I'm over you, I'll be working blue, oh working blue I'm working blue, working blue, working blue Tonight I'm working blue, you got me working blue I'm working blue, working blue, working blue You got me working blue, you got me working I said these scars are so deep I'm cut to the bone Until my conscience leaves my soul alone Until the day I work it through, I'll be working blue, oh working blue I'll say it until the day I'm over you I'll be working blue, I'll be working blue Working blue
