One Step Ahead Of The Blues 

A trusting heart played for the fool, but she don’t dwell on sorrow
She makes her way through the wind and rain to a sunny day tomorrow 

CHORUS:

It’s all up hill no turning back, looking over your shoulder
With every breath she gets closer
With stones in the road and holes in her shoes
She stays one step ahead of the blues 

He was fine, the pin striped kind. Touched her skin and made her shiver
‘Til the word got out, what he’s all about. Seems he was a double dipper 

REPEAT CHORUS:

VAMP:

Whoa yea, here she come

Well it’s live and learn, it’s crash and burn, still she is a player
She’s out all night she’ll get it right. Don’t need a man to save her 

REPEAT CHORUS:
