The COVID blues

Wearin’ a mask in public

Fearin’ the latest news

Wishin’ they’d change the subject

I’m tellin’ ya’ what I got

I got the COVID Blues

Never been so frustrated

Bring me a barrel-o-booze

But I can’t barely taste it

I’m tellin’ ya’ what I got

I got the COVID Blues

Tryin’ to keep my distance

From everyone that I see

Buildin’ up my resistance

Prayin’ on bended knee

I frantically search for wisdom

On which of the shots to choose

Get jabbed or get sent to prison

I’m tellin’ ya’ what I got

I got the COVID Blues

Lord, how I’m feelin’ desperate

Dreadin’ the bitter end

But maybe there’ll be a respite

Comin’ around the bend

And so as I leave you wond’ring

Whether I’ve blown a fuse

I’m certain of only one thing

I’m tellin’ ya’ what I got

I got the COVID Blues

I’m tellin’ ya’ what I got

I got the COVID Blues
