From the recording Harper
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I said to myself
What's the matter with you boy?
Get up out of that mess
Turn that sorrow into joy
You gotta be doing something
And if you got the choice
Don't just lay around complaining
And don't give that noise
Don't give that noise
[Chorus]
Well I'm tired of your excuses
And I'm tired of your boos
Stand up on your feet
Quit singing them low down blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
[Verse 2]
You can cry all you want
Knock yourself out
You can kick and scream
You can jump and shout
There's something I gotta tell you
And I know that it's true
You're just wasting your time
And you're gonna lose
Yeah you're gonna lose
[Chorus]
Well I'm tired of your excuses
And I'm tired of your boos
Stand up on your feet
Quit singing them low down blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Today is your day
Hold your head up high
Look to the Lord
Tell your blues bye-bye
Don't give it another thought
Don't give it another chance
Just listen to the words of that song
Called a victory dance
The victory dance
[Chorus]
Well I'm tired of your excuses
And I'm tired of your boos
Stand up on your feet
Quit singing them low down blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
Quit singing them blues
[Outro]
