Blues Don't Tell It All, The

B. Payne, S. Murphy Like a steamboat floatin' in a wild monsoon woulda' had a better chance to see me through tails are high and the winds are bearin' down cable touchin' cable, live wires on the ground the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all diamonds rushing by in a pale gray light balck thunder rolling with the crack of steel white fever runnin' high, spirit ebbin' low caught on the highway with too many mile to go maladjusted malcontent deliberate deception with a wounded heart temptation... temptation in an empty world the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all it's a rumored affair something cheap in the air you been playin' for luck but you always get caught double rider on a rain streaked road thunder rippin', engine screamin' north can't escape a fool in terror the kiss of death and now you're gone and once again I'm all alone the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all the blues don't tell it all
