Let's build a stairway to the stars And climb that stairway to the stars With love beside us to fill the night with a song We'll hear the sound of violins Out yonder where the blue begins The moon will guide us as we go drifting along Can't we sail away

This is a mean old world, try and live it by yourself. I've got the blues, gonna pack my things and go. Sometimes I wonder why can your love be so cold? Can't get the one you love, have to use somebody else. Guess you don't love me, babe, loving mister

Money is the anthem, God, you're so handsome, money is the anthem Red, white, blue's in the skies, summer's in the air and baby, heaven's in your eyes I'm your National Anthem Tell me I'm your National Anthem (ooh yeah baby bow down, makin' me so wild

Somebody asked me, why I live the blues I said the blues is all around me, I just find something I can use And I feel it running through me, but I give it my heart and soul I practice while I'm singing, let the feeling take control I'm just trying to

Get your lighters, roll that sticky, let's get higher (Let's get high). Got that blueberry yum yum and it's that fire (It's that fire). Think I'ma try something that I ain't, that I ain't never did before on this one Got a lil' bit of blueberry yum yum,

The blues have wrapped their arms Oh how I wish it was you instead That I knew better than those around me But something changed along the way And you're the reason I'm wanting to stay I can't turn my back and leave you After all you've done for me

Well I woke up this mornin' it was drizzlin' rain Around the curve come a passenger train Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan Jimmy he's dead he's been a long time gone Been a long time gone a long time gone If you wanna get to heaven gotta D-I-E you

I'm bleedin' American gold, gold, gold, yeah, yeah I lost some friends, some friends that I didn't want to I lost some stars, my heart bleeds red, white, and blue I've been in and out of the fire battling for you (oh oh) Bleeding on American soil I bleed

When I'm looking up at you I'll colour me blue Only seeing myself Anything it takes to make you stay I know you're seeing black and white So I'll paint you a clear blue sky Without you I am colour-blind It's raining every time I open my eyes

Can't hold you close when you're not with me You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine Making believe that I'll spend my lifetime Making believe that you still love me It's leaving me alone and so blue I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
