It was quite a sight, coming out of the night    I was greeting the cold, cold dawn    I thought at the time, that the thin white line    Would bring me back to my swan    But oh I was wrong and now this song    Is a song of a broken heart    It makes me sad because all that I had    Was love for that girl from the start       Now I'm back on the road again    Singing a sad, sad song again    Hooked on the white pills    My head's in the sky    Rockin' the blues till I die    Rockin' the blues till I die       Forty-five cities in 51 days    I ain't had a sleep in a week    Now it's back in the track    Before I hit the sack    I hope I don't spring a leak       This rock and roll is making me old    But I've got something to prove    From the bottom to the top    You'll never see me stop    Now that I'm on the move       Rockin' the blues    Rockin' the blues    Rockin' the blues    Rockin' the blues    Rockin' the blues till I die
