I was just a young man working steady in a good time bandPickin' every single little lick I could just to please the manHarlan sang the lead for half and we split up the restHangin' on through the heavy times and hopin' for the bestAnd I can't recall the names of all, them places that we played inAll them squirrelly party girls and pills we used to popHardly ever sleepin' in those cheap motels we stayed inHopin' we could take it 'til we'd make it t the topAnd them nights, get a little bit brighterAnd them bars just a little bit betterAnd the sweet, just a little bit sweeterBut them blues, well it's still the same old songNow we're stars and shining on them prime time TV showsEvery stranger knows our name and every little where we goFindin' out the bottom ain't so different from the topJust a few more friends that you'll be losin' when you dropAnd I've left some of my soul on every sweaty sheet that I could sleep onGettin' just as close to any body as I couldI don't regret a single bed I've laid my body down onEver since the first I had the worst I had was goodAnd them nights, get a little bit brighterAnd them bars just a little bit betterAnd the sweet, just a little bit sweeterBut them blues, well it's still the same old song
