Lyrics

Today I caught the blues and it tore me up inside
Yes, today I caught the blues and it really tore me up inside
Had to call the family doctor to ask what he could prescribe

He said, son, there ain't nothin' I can do for you
You're gonna have to let it ride
Son, there ain't nothin' I can do for you
You're gonna have to let it ride
No one's ever found a cure for what's ailin' you inside

I'm home sick with the blues
Stuck in bed both day and night
I'm home sick with the blues
I'm stuck in bed both day and night
I'm home sick with the blues
Ain't no medicine can make me right

If you ever catch the blues it will tear you up inside
If you ever catch the blues
it's gonna tear you up inside
Don't bother callin' the doctor
There ain't no medicine to make you right

You'll be home sick with the blues
Stuck in bed both day and night
You'll be home sick with the blues
Stuck in bed both day and night
You'll be home sick with the blues
Ain't no medicine can make you right
