Got the Blues in Chicago (Imagine That!)



I'm a Master's Student
Duh Duh Duh Duh
I study all day
Duh Duh Duh Duh
While everyone is playin'
Duh Duh Duh Duh
I'm makin' hay

Cause I got the low-o-down
Master's Student Blues
I'd rather be playin'
But it's studyin' I choose

My friends they keep leavin'
Duh Duh Duh Duh
I'm lonely as sin
Duh Duh Duh Duh
I'm an aging punk rocker
Duh Duh Duh Duh
Going through crisis again

Cause I got the low-o-down
Master's Student Blues
I used to go playin'
But now it's studyin' I choose

OK, well, I'm not exactly Muddy Waters or Buddy Guy or even BB King, but you get the point. Sick of school. Migrating friends. Irritating job. Shit, y'all, I just need to go to bed. Sleep will cure most any kind of illin' you have.

My foot tapped hard like Rory Block's while I read/sang your blues lyrics. Sorry you're at that point right now.

Add a little insomnia to this mix, which is probably the real problem, and you're in for some fun! Fortunately, being 42 means that I understand that I am just sleep deprived and will feel better after a couple of nights of good rest.

Owww.

In another month I'll be in the same boat.
