Real Life Blues

So much trouble in the world

I can't watch or read the news

It brings me down so bad baby

When I read the daily blues

So much heartache in the world

All the sickness and the war

Keep my head down in the sand

'Cause I just can't take no more

I'm talking 'bout trouble

Too many reasons for the blues

I'm talking trouble

It's time we had some better news

So much fighting in the world

God and country leads to war

They say we fight for peace

But I just can't take no more

So much killing in the world

Terrorist victims by the score

So much trouble in the world, baby

But I just can't take no more

I'm talking 'bout trouble

Too many reasons for the blues

I'm talking trouble

It's time we had some better news

I'm talking 'bout trouble

Too many reasons for the blues

I'm talking trouble

It's time we had some better news, yeah
