Caamp Keep The Blues Away Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got lost down in Rio
I  was running from the FBI
Yeah,  they had me on some charges back in San Anton'
You know I never got the reason why
I turned up in a casino
My  hands up and ready to fight
The  whole damn mariachi band
For playing the same tune twice

[Chorus]
I  get high 'cause I want to
I get low everyday
I get high 'cause I want to
Gotta do something
To  keep the blues away

[Verse 2]
You know last time that I seen her
My girl was lookin' mighty fine
Starin' through the glass at a police station
Just tryin' hear the end of the line
I know I said it and I mean it
I am tryin' to change my life
But when times get tough
Yeah, the tough get hard
You can cut me with a butter knife

[Chorus]
I get high 'cause I want to
I get low everyday
I get high 'cause I want to
Gotta do something
To keep the blues away

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
I get high 'cause I want to
I get low everyday
I get high 'cause I want to
Gotta do something
High 'cause I want to
Low everyday
High 'cause I want to
Gotta do something
To keep the blues away
