[Verse 1]
I was Gborn in a town where the rivers flow free
On a CJanuary night when the cold winds freeze
I got an GIrish name and an injury
DBlessing and a curse cast Emdown on me
GAin't nobody got the Dblues like Emme
CAin't nobody got the Dblues like Gme
[Verse 2]
Was a Gblood red sky on the morning tide
Was a Ccold wind blowing when I left that night
And the Gwarning bells rang, alright, alright
DShoulda stayed home with Emyou that night
GAin't nobody played the Dfool like EmI
CAin't nobody played the Dfool like GI
[Bridge]
CThings got bad and things got worse
EmHalf like blessing, half like curse
It's these Cblessings so hard to see sometimes
EmGotta little clearer about dusk last night
GAin't nobody got a Dblessing like Emmine
CAin't nobody got a Dblessing like Gmine
It's a Gred sky night and I'm Ddoing alEmright
