Some of Shelly's Blues

Tell me, just one more time, the reasons why you must leave

Tell me once more why you're sure you don't need me

Tell me again, but don't think that you'll convince me

Now you've said, before falling in love again you'd rather be dead

'Cause when someone breaks your heart, you cry your eyes red

But there's nothing so hard about the life that you've led

As far as I can see

There's no reason for goodbyes

You're just runnin' scared

And that's something I won't buy

So you lose

I won't let you go with nothing to show but more blues

And all this talk about leaving is strictly bad news

So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you

So you lose

I won't let you go with nothing to show but more blues

And all this talk about leaving is strictly bad news

So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you

Yes, you settle down and stay with the man that loves you

Yes, you settle down and stay with me, babe
