(Pattern 1)
Town to town
honkytonks and dives all look the same
his gypsy heart
keeps his shadow ridin' through the rain
(Pattern 2)
A graveyard full of scars
his life will paint his songs
'cos when you're on the road
there's nowhere you belong you're just alone
where are you playin'
Mr. Bluesman, Mr. Bluesman.

(Pattern 1)
I've paid some dues
now I make my living as a music man, yes I do,
I play the blues
I guess the blues must be just what I am.
