No Running From The Blues Lyrics - Steve Forbert

VERSE 

Try your pills and powders 

Take your drugs of every kind 

Try your luck with liquor 

Try your luck with beer and wine 

CHORUS 

You can try 

Try it any way you choose 

You can try it if you want to 

But it's no use runnin' from the blues 

VERSE 

You tried to throw a party 

And the invitations read 

All your friends invited 

But the blues showed up instead 

(REPEAT CHORUS) 

(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK) 

VERSE 

You flown down to Jamaica 

And you walked on off the plane 

Blues stepped up to greet ya 

And he smiled and shook your hand 

(REPEAT CHORUS) 

VERSE 

It ain't no superstition, child 

The blues is really real 

Get yourself together 

Got to deal with how you feel 

(REPEAT CHORUS) 

(INSTRUMENTAL OUT
