The Blues Chapter - Bad Introduction

My mama done love me, and my daddy done too
Put nothing above me built my dreams up with glue
Encouraged and nurtured, supported and praised
Happy and carefree through alla my days
Ain't got no fights, no cuts or even a bruise
It was a bad introduction for singing the blues

I slept like a baby all tucked up in bed
I never went thirsty, I always was fed
I sauntered through high school with A grades and clout
A dozen disciples to help me act out
But they had right wing political views
It was a bad introduction for singing the blues

When I hit twenty man everything changed
Where once I had plenty it all rearranged
Stints in the priory my ship it was sunk
I was angry and hopeless a miserable drunk
Bad times are the times that I choose
It was the perfect introduction for singing the blues

The trust fund was drained, just like the wife and the booze
It was the perfect introduction for singing the blues
