It took him half a lifetime to figure out who he is, and in the meantime, he fell into a bottle of booze, and couldn't find his way out. That's why he's singing the blues.

Lyrics

V1

People really annoy me

They get under my skin

I'd rather talk to a tree

Depending on the mood I'm in



V2

I think I've been a misfit

Since the day I was born

There's been many times I wanna quit

I felt so much scorn



Chorus

It took me half a lifetime

To figure out who I am

It's such a dog gone crime

I could have been a different man

I fell into a bottle of booze

And couldn't find my way out

That's why I'm singing the blues

And I just wanna shout



Bridge

Out a curse word or two

I got them nowhere man blues



V3

My feelings were bottled up inside

I didn't trust what I knew

It was a nice place to hide

From them nowhere man blues



V4

I was a man with no face

A stranger in the crowd

It was a damn disgrace

I gotta yell it out loud



Bridge

I got them nowhere man blues



Chorus

It took me half a lifetime

To figure out who I am

It's such a dog gone crime

I could have been a different man

I fell into a bottle of booze

And couldn't find my way out

That's why I'm singing the blues

And I just wanna shout



Outro

At them nowhere man blues

I found my way out

I'm done with the nowhere man blues
