First Time I Met the Blues
(Montgomery)

First time I met the blues
I was walkin down thro' the woods
First time I met you mister blues
I was walking I was walkin down thro' the woods
Knew you would do me no good
First time I met you mister blues

The blues they came after me
And you know they rode me down thro' the trees
Well the blues they came after me
And you know they rode me, rode me down thro' the trees
You should have seen me on my knees begin'
Blues don't bother me

Good miornin mister blues
Why do you do what you do to me
Good mornin mister blues
Why do you do what you do to me
Well you know you've been with me
Every single mornin
Every single night
And every noon
