CLawd these ninety nine blues ain't no fancy dream
If G7you had two lives to live you'd know just what I Cmean
When the judge read the verdict it nearly knocked me down
Said G7boy you got two six's they're all upside Cdown 
It ain't the days I've been here it's the days I got to stay
All G7the old friends I ever had done shook hands and gone Caway
My good gal told me the day I hit this can
You've G7made your bed in sorrow now sleep on it like a Cman
Ninety nine and ninety nine make one hundred and ninety eight
That's G7four years pretty normal than you can figure up on your Cslate
I don't know what else is in the world to lose
Cause G7I've lost everything except these ninety nine Cblues

Lawd these ninety nine blues ain't no fancy dream

G7 C

If you had two lives to live you'd know just what I mean

It ain't the days I've been here it's the days I got to stay

All the old friends I ever had done shook hands and gone away

My good gal told me the day I hit this can

You've made your bed in sorrow now sleep on it like a man

That's four years pretty normal than you can figure up on your slate

I don't know what else is in the world to lose

G7 C

Cause I've lost everything except these ninety nine blues
