I've got the worried blues,

And I don't know what to do

It seems my dreams

Have been tarnished by events

And I think of you

And I hope that we aren't done.

You're the one I need

To get me through a lonely lifetime

Some of the things they said

Well they might have been true

But I really don’t appreciate it so much

Just yesterday I had so much to say

Seemed like people wanted to listen

But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me

And I'm so sad.

Everything has turned out bad.

I tried so hard,

But goofed up somehow

I just want you to know

I didn't mean no harm on purpose

But they turned it into a circus

Just to put me down

But I'm still around

Maybe I'll have another chanc.

To turn the tables

And be a hero in the end

Just yesterday I had so much to say

Seemed like people wanted to listen.

But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me.

And so I'm singin'

The 1989 blues.

But I'm lookin’ for a tune:

A better future for me and you.

And now it comes,

The end of this song.

Some of the things I did might have been wrong

But it's only because I was out of my mind.

The 1989 Blues
