原歌词

[00:00.000]	作词 : McGhee
[00:10.47]	From my childhood to where I am now
[00:14.50]	I ain't gonna worry, I'll get by somehow
[00:18.54]	My Momma had 'em, my daddy had 'em too
[00:23.05]	I was born with the blues
[00:29.45]
[00:32.34]
[00:32.89]	I'll tell you somethin'
[00:33.81]	Friend it ain't no joke
[00:35.18]	I wouldn't take my past life
[00:35.68]	For my weight in gold
[00:36.89]
[00:37.59]	My momma had 'em, daddy had 'em too
[00:39.32]	I was born with the blues
[00:48.16]
[00:48.37]	I've used my guitar for my pillow
[00:49.72]	Hollow log has even been my bed
[00:56.09]	Blues, my only companion
[00:59.83]	I had to sing the blues for my meat and bread
[01:04.58]
[01:05.34]	I want you to know I begin to roam
[01:08.69]	Poor old Brownie come from a broken home
[01:12.94]	My Momma had 'em, daddy had 'em too
[01:17.13]	I was born with the blues
[01:22.09]
[01:22.61]	If you've ever been down
[01:25.49]	You know how I feel
[01:27.41]	Feel like an engine
[01:29.28]	Ain't got no drivin' wheel
[01:30.84]
[01:31.50]	But I'm not ashamed
[01:33.17]	Ain't that news
[01:35.95]	I been livin' with the blues
[01:40.79]
[01:41.44]	Don't believe I'm sinkin'
[01:43.72]	Look what a hole I'm in
[01:45.95]	Don't believe I love you
[01:47.66]	Look what a fool I've been
[01:49.48]
[01:50.09]	But I'm not ashamed
[01:51.86]	Ain't that news
[01:54.75]	I been livin' with the blues
[01:56.97]
[02:00.56]	Because rocks was my mother n father's pillow
[02:05.26]	Cold ground had to be their beds
[02:09.61]	Blue sky was their blanket
[02:13.10]	And the moonlight was their spread
[02:17.11]
[02:17.75]	If you think I'm happy
[02:19.17]	You don't know my mind
[02:21.95]	Smile on my face
[02:23.21]	My heart's bleeding all the time
[02:26.11]
[02:26.72]	But I'm not ashamed
[02:28.07]	Ain't that news
[02:31.21]	I been livin' with the blues
[02:32.63]
[02:36.62]	Because rocks was my mother n father's pillow
[02:41.78]	Cold ground had to be their beds
[02:45.98]	Blue sky was their blanket
[02:50.37]	And the moonlight was their spread
[02:54.02]
[02:54.58]	Worked all summer
[02:58.63]	Slaved all the fall
[02:58.92]	Had to take your Christams
[03:00.30]	In your overalls
[03:01.71]
[03:02.92]	But I'm not ashamed
[03:04.90]	Ain't that news
[03:07.61]	I been livin' with the blues
[03:10.35]
[03:12.93]	My momma had 'em, daddy had 'em too
[03:18.18]	I was born with the blues
[03:21.38]
[03:24.76]	But I'm not ashamed
[03:26.48]	Oh no friends
[03:26.99]	Ain't that a lot of news
[03:28.76]	Me and old Sonny's got the blues
[03:33.98]

[00:14.50]	我从不焦虑，总有办法挺过去
[00:18.54]	我娘有这种情绪，我爹也有过
[00:23.05]	我生在蓝调中（blues为双关语，既指蓝调音乐，也可指忧愁，下同）
[00:29.45]
[00:32.34]
[00:32.89]	告诉你件事情
[00:33.81]	伙计，我可不开玩笑
[00:35.18]	我并不把过去的日子
[00:35.68]	看得像金子似的重要
[00:36.89]
[00:37.59]	我娘有这种情绪，我爹也有过
[00:39.32]	我生在蓝调中
[00:48.16]
[00:48.37]	我用吉他当过枕头
[00:49.72]	用掏空的原木当过床
[00:56.09]	蓝调，是我唯一的伴侣
[00:59.83]	我得演唱蓝调来换取肉和面包
[01:04.58]
[01:05.34]	我希望你知道，我一直在流浪
[01:08.69]	可怜兮兮的Brownie老哥（即演唱者自称）来自一个破败的家
[01:12.94]	我娘有这种情绪，我爹也有过
[01:17.13]	我生在蓝调中
[01:22.09]
[01:22.61]	如果你也沮丧过
[01:25.49]	你就能体会到我的感受了
[01:27.41]	感觉像一台发动机
[01:29.28]	却没有轮子
[01:30.84]
[01:31.50]	但我并不难为情
[01:33.17]	这也不是啥新鲜事

[02:05.26]	冰凉的地面就是床
[02:09.61]	蓝天当毯子
[02:13.10]	月光当床罩
[02:17.11]
[02:17.75]	如果你觉得我很开心
[02:19.17]	你真的不懂我
[02:21.95]	我脸上挂着微笑
[02:23.21]	心却一直在流血
[02:26.11]
[02:26.72]	但我并不难为情
[02:28.07]	这也不是啥新鲜事

[02:45.98]	蓝天当毯子
[02:50.37]	月光当床罩
[02:54.02]
[02:54.58]	整个夏天都在干活
[02:58.63]	整个秋天都被当奴隶使唤
[02:58.92]	到了圣诞节
[03:00.30]	也得穿着工装过
