Passin' on the Blues

Jackie Greene

She talked about jesus 
but there ain’t nobody lying here 
she talked about the man 
but there ain’t nobody worried here 
then she talked about love 
and never sings the blues 

she talked about money 
but there ain’t nobody starving here 
she talked about her blood 
but there ain’t nobody dying here 
then she talked about love 
and everything’s the blues 

I know she don’t care 
about anything but me 
she’s already dancing, 
talking about passin on the blues 

she talked about devils 
how she should have been a 3rd street girl 
she talked about anything 
and everything in the whole wide word 

I know she don’t care 
about anything but me 
she’s already dancing, 
talking about passin on the blues
