BLUE RIBBON BLUES

BLUE RIBBON BLUES
(Glenn D Tubb/Jerry K Green)

Yesterday I saw you with someone new
The happiness on your face told me we’re through
At least I'm consistent, I always lose
The only thing I’ve ever won was the blues
But tonight I'm a champion, the bluest of the blue
That’s what I got for what I put you through
A little strip of ribbon that verifies the news
He’s got you I've got the BLUE RIBBON BLUES

Last night I took the prize for crying so long
I broke every record that's ever been known
When they name Who's Who In Blues I know who they’ll choose
Yes, it’s true I've got the BLUE RIBBON BLUES
And tonight I'm a champion, the bluest of the blue
That’s what I got for what I put you through
A little strip of ribbon that verifies the news
He’s got you I've got the BLUE RIBBON BLUES

Bridge Under the influence of liquor and lust
I crossed the line,lost your love and your trust

So tonight I'm a champion, the bluest of the blue
That’s what I got for what I put you through
A little strip of ribbon that verifies the news
He’s got you I've got the BLUE RIBBON BLUES

He’s got you I've got the BLUE RIBBON BLUES
