Sylvia Robinson - Tonight I'm Gettin' Friendly With The Blues lyrics

We went through the house today Divided up our stuff I got some old records of his He got all my love The facts are facin' me tonight And they look like bad news Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues The blues have kept good track of me But he kept them outside They could tell the minute he left There's no place to hide But I'll admit the company Is something I could use Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues He used to say I was too jealous Of all his old girlfriends I competed with their memories And now I'm one of them If you can't beat 'em, join 'em Be gracious when you lose Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues Tonight I'm getting friendly with the blues
