Blown Down Blues

Oh mama...I’m so sick and sad 
Oh mama...things looks awful bad

All the famous faces

Look so mean and mad

Oh mama...everybody’s used

Oh mama...what we gonna do?

The bank went broke when the deal was done

Then all the houses of cards blew down
What’s the sense of pretending they’re still around?

Oh mama...where we gonna turn?

Oh mama...we keep getting burned

Dealers keep on dealing

Like we’ll never learn

Oh mama...will it ever end?

Oh mama...what’s around the bend?

A sudden rumble took another tumble

In a boom that just went bust
Is there anything left for us in the dust?

Oh mama!
