I wish I could find a place to live alone, somewhere to do as I choose.
I need a change, but change is all that I own. I got the first and last blues.
Your love surrounds me, I keep closing in. The walls are closing in too.
Sometimes it feels like I've been spinning my wheels, here with the first and last blues.
We don't have much, so there won't be much to miss. I only know that I deserve more than this.
Can't afford to pay no first and last, but that won't be no excuse.
Keep on talking, if I'm walking, singing the first and last blues.
We don't have much, so there won't be much to miss.
I only know that I deserve more than this.
Can't afford to pay no first and last, but that won't be no excuse.
I'm gonna travel, scratch and gravel, singing the first and last blues.
We don't have much, so there won't be much to miss.
I only know that I deserve more than this.
Can't afford to pay no first and last, but that won't be no excuse.
Keep on talking, girl, I'm walking, singing the first and last blues.
Singing the first and last blues.
I got the first and last blues.
