New Scotland Blues

verse 1 Late October, in a rut Leaves came down when the wind picked up Seems to happen every fall The wind picks up and takes 'em all The wind picks up and takes 'em all verse 2 On the 29th, I set the time Back an hour, drank some wine Stayed up late, woke up early With my head so full of worry With my head so full of worry Ooh, you stay away from me I've seen what you can do I play for money, but I sing for free My New Scotland Blues Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo verse 3 True regrets, I've had a few But I know I've had my way too In my back pocket, walkin' round True regrets, they can be found My true regrets, they travel town verse 4 Always walking on a wire Now I'm worn out, now I'm tired I'm tired of the push, tired of the shove I'm tired of the fight and I'm tired of the love If I sound cold put on some gloves Ooh, you stay away from me I've seen what you can do I play for money, but I sing for free My New Scotland Blues Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo Verse 5 Are you ready, are you not? You can't hide the things you thought Tryin' so hard not to blink I think I've had too much to drink Now I can't hide the things I think Ooh, you stay away from me You don't have a clue Ain't nobody gonna change the key Of my New Scotland Blues Ooh, you get away from me I've seen what you can do I play for money, but I sing for free My New Scotland Blues My New Scotland Blues Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo Outro In the basement singin' songs Hear the furnace turnin' on Press record and then rewind Listen back to another time Remind myself what was on my mind It sounds like I had too much wine
