Blues Brothers - Can't Play The Blues In An Aircon.
All my life I had to struggle, I paid some heavy dues
Squeekin` out a livin`, playin` easy blues
Then one day my music made me a millionaire
I bought a big old mansion with central heated air
Now I got more money than I know how to use
Got everything a man could want, but I ain`t got no blues
Success for me could only lead to my immediate doom
`cause I can`t play the blues in an airconditioned room
Now I was doin` better with a smaller piece of pie
But all my fame and fortune I can`t identify
I lost the inspiration that came natural in the start
I have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heart
Now my life`s too easy, I`d be getting soft
I used to play the blues all day, but now I just play golf
Now all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too
`cause I can`t play the blues in an airconditioned room
You know what I`m saying
It`s kinda hard to play the blues
if you don`t have any problems
You might think I`m crazy, you might think I`m strange
The first thing in the morning I`m gonna make a change
I throw away my money, I move back to that shag
Do whatever I gotta do to get that old feelin` back
I know I`d be feelin` better with nothing left to lose
When times are bad, the less I had, the better I played the blues
I buy myself some turkey and wine, and howl it at the moon
`cause I can`t play the blues in an airconditioned room
If I should die tomorrow you can write it on my tomb
`He couldn`t play the blues in an airconditioned room`
Squeekin` out a livin`, playin` easy blues
Then one day my music made me a millionaire
I bought a big old mansion with central heated air
Now I got more money than I know how to use
Got everything a man could want, but I ain`t got no blues
Success for me could only lead to my immediate doom
`cause I can`t play the blues in an airconditioned room
Now I was doin` better with a smaller piece of pie
But all my fame and fortune I can`t identify
I lost the inspiration that came natural in the start
I have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heart
Now my life`s too easy, I`d be getting soft
I used to play the blues all day, but now I just play golf
Now all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too
`cause I can`t play the blues in an airconditioned room
You know what I`m saying
