Grand Jury: The State of Blues


State of Blues

(Dawn Sinclair/Juri Rosenfeld)

Goodbye Massachusetts
Hello Delaware
seems I don't have long to wait
I find the blues in every state
cos man you know that I been everywhere


Bit the bullet in Wyoming
I got uptight in Ohio
I wake up every morning
wondrin' what the sun is warnin'
And I'm sure its saying-- I gotta go

CHORUS
Tongue tied in California
I was French fried in Veracruz
I got waylaid in Indiana
Now I'm living in the State of Blues


Things were harder in Nevada
So I left for the State of Maine
But I fell into a blue funk
When the Huskies missed a slam dunk
And I bought myself a ticket for the plane

Tongue tied in California
I was French fried in Veracruz
I got waylaid in Indiana
Now I'm living in the State of Blues

I’ve been dumped on in West Virgina
I was hammered on Texas brew
I’m considering it might be me
But I havent been to Tennessee
So Tennessee’s the place I’m heading to

Tongue tied in California
I was French fried in Veracruz
I got waylaid in Indiana
Now I'm living in the State of Blues

yes I was

Tongue tied in California
I was French fried in Veracruz
I got waylaid in Indiana
Now I'm living in the State of Blues

Tongue tied in California
I was French fried in Veracruz
I got waylaid in Indiana
Now I'm living in the State of Blues
