I'm worried about the future, I'm haunted by the past
Ain't crazy 'bout the present and I pray that it can't last
But don't worry now, 'cause I don't have that much to lose
Through my veins runs the sorrow, I'm infected with the blues
I went to see the preacher and I dropped down to my knees
I said preacher can you help me to put my soul at ease
He said son, I'd like to help you but there's no good I can bring
Those who sleep out with the jackals never hear the angels sing
But don't worry son, you don't have that much to lose
nobody wants a soul who's infected with the blues
Way off in the distance, I used to see a light
but now that light has vanished in the darkness of the night
When the soul begins to wander and the body is its jail,
it will lay that body down to break out of its cell.
But don't worry now, 'cause I ain't got that much to lose
Through my veins runs the sorrow, I'm infected with the blues
