[Intro]
A blues is a feeling
And when you get blues it makes some people wear out their shoes
And they got the blues when they wear out their shoes
And the blues is sad news

[Verse 1]
I'm a poor boy and I'm a stranger blowed in your town (yes, I am)
I'm a poor boy and I'm a stranger blowed in your town
I'm a poor boy and I'm a stranger blowed in your town
I'm going where a friend can be found

[Verse 2]
I'm a poor boy and I'm a great long way from home (yes, I am)
I'm a poor boy and I'm a great long way from home
I'm a poor boy and I'm a great long ways from home
Can't get nobody to go on the bus

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna sing this verse and I won't sing it no more
I'm gonna sing this verse and I won't sing it no more
I'm gonna sing this verse and I won't sing it no more
I'm going back to Chicago
