Luther's Got The Blues Lyrics - I'm A Mountain - Sarah Harmer

I hate the city it brings me down 

I? m a country boy I? m new to town 

But I never really thought it was gonna be like that 

Spent all my money, I? m busted flat 

So I? m eating my dinners at the Sally Ann 

Met a fellow named Charlie there, a fellow named Stan 

And they laugh at my clothes and the way that I talk 

Eight a.m. comes and I hit the streets and walk 

And the bus stops, the doughnut shops 

It? s raining out today like it? s never gonna stop 

And I got the blues 

I got nothing left to lose 

There? s a hole in my shoe and my foot? s getting wet 

And Nick at the arcade made me a bet 

That by Saturday noon when my money? s all gone 

I? ll be heading out of town like another sad, hard luck song 

And all the faces on the streets got a look of fear 

I can? t go home but I hate it here 

Oh why? d I ever go and leave the farm anyway? 

Thought the city my help me take my blues away 

But the cars go by 

Tonight I? ll stay dry 

Sleeping underneath an awning and trying not to cry 

I got the blues 

I got nothing left to lose 

My pappy used to have a little problem drinking scotch 

He did a lot of stupid things 

We used to hate to watch 

But he? s cleaned up his act as a matter of fact 

Although there? s something there we lost 

We? re never going back 

And I got the blues 

I got nothing left to lose 

And the concrete beneath my feet 

Has got inside my soul and it? s sucking out the heat
