Truth & Fiction (2008)
 
If the Blues Don’t Shake You
They gather as the moon appears
You tremble as you grind the gears
If the blues don’t shake you then you’re dead

They catch you when your guard is down
You almost made it out of town
But the blues made you turn around instead

So you led them on with alcohol
Tried to leave them at the final call
But the blues followed you to bed

So you take them out again
Just to smooth things round the bend
You talk real nice, take bad advice
But the blues don’t want to be your friend

They’d rather hide down underneath your skin
To get to where your blood begins
And then circulate right up inside your head

Oh don’t you try to getaway
There’s no key to that highway
’Cause wherever you go, well there you are
That could be funny, but it's not today

Cause you’re wearing that old sorry face
Don’t you know they leave trace
Two tracks leading out behind the shed

So when the blue skies turn gray
Wink your eye and just say hey
Don’t you mumble on until the dawn
You’re just gonna feel all wrong for one more day

Did I mention I’ve been on that train?
It stops and then it starts again
If the blues don’t shake you then you’re dead

The breeze blows, the baby wakes
There’s just some rules that never break
If the blues don’t shake you then you’re dead
If the blues don’t shake you then you’re dead
