Sing, sing the blues and cry
For lady do or die
Play the blues and cry
For lady do or die
I don't know why, God knows why
I wonder what it takes
Close the door before you leave
Train whistle start to cry
On this road tonight looking for her candlelight
Play the guitar
Kings on the road keep smilin' on
Kings of the road keep travelin' on
The things I do for love
What it takes, it takes a life
To free someone
For lady do or die
Ride metallic monsters
For lady do or die
It's a shame what you've become
For lady do or die
For lady do or die
Can almost hear her breath
Play the guitar and sing the blues and cry
Can't give her all her needs
'Cause I was o' so young
I wonder what it takes
It makes a woman bleed
For lady do or die
For lady do or die
Play the guitar and sing the blues and cry
Misshaped before my time
Every mile a ragged woe
For lady do or die
More people start to die
What it takes, sometime before midnight
Free you from your prison
And there's mud in your eye
Tumbleweed, passing by
For lady do or die
Play the guitar and sing the blues and cry
