I hear the shufflin’
I hear the pacin’
From the apartment upstairs that I can’t afford
Where there must be a path going forward & back
Back & forth all across the floor
I know now, even God gets the blues
It was all over yesterday’s front page news
Even God gets the blues
I felt the tremble in the water
Keeps getting stronger everyday
First it was a pebble, now it’s a boulder
First it was a ripple, now it’s a wave
I know now, even God gets the blues
It was all over yesterday’s front page news
Even God gets the blues
Long before we saw that rainbow sign
God sat Noah down and gave him a piece of his mind
He said “Pack up your bags, 2 of everything
‘Cause when you see me coming, there’s no telling the hell I can bring you”
Even God gets the blues
Wake up tomorrow, read the front page news, even God gets the blues
Just like me, just like you
Even god gets the blues
Oh yes he do
Oh yes he do
Oh yes he do
