Drowned My Life In Fear

Well I was just eighteen years old
I sat down on some stairs
I blew on some notes and gathered some votes
And my blues began to shake that city air
Drowned my life in fear
And take me through your years
But when I find I've got my piece of mind
Lord knows you can spare me your tears

Well I was just fresh out of school
I didn't abide your city rules
Stayed out late at night I did nothing alright
And man you know I went and blew it all
Drowned my life in fear
And take me through your years
And when I find I've got my piece of mind
Lord knows you can spare me your tears

Hey little woman
I said I hear you real good
Hey little woman
I know that I'm feeling like a good man should
Ooh, yeah alright

I've had me some real good years
I've got to loosen my tears
I had me fight but it worked out alright
And those blues of mine began to disappear
I drowned my life in fear
And took me through my years
But when I find I've lost my piece of mind
Lord knows you can spare me your tears
