Looking For The Blues

by Bob Malone
From “Mojo Deluxe” (2015)

I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me
I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me
Every time I think things are going fine
That’s when I always find hard times
I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me

I wasn’t looking for you
But baby you found me
I wasn’t looking for you
But baby you found me
Just when I’d had all that I could take
You found another heart to break
I wasn’t looking for you
But baby you found me

I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me
I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me
Well you think I would have learned by now
When you’re feeling too lucky, your luck runs out
I wasn’t looking for the blues
But the blues found me
