The Lyrics 3:35

I try so hard not to hate the job I got
Unappreciated by my thankless boss
No matter how much grief he puts me through
I'm lookin' for the bright side of the blues

By the time I draw my pay it's good as gone
To the bill collectors camped out on my lawn
Since I don't have much and nothin' left to lose
I'll keep lookin' for the bright side of the blues

Where things I hope to have some day
Eventually might come my way
Where a guy breaks even now and then

Where finally I'll get some slack and I won't have to break my back
Tryin' to keep the ends from comin' loose
I'm lookin' for the bright side of the blues

There's a sweepstakes ticket tacked up on my wall
But it ain't about the million bucks at all
No, it's just a thing for lookin' forward to
I know that somewhere there's a bright side of the blues

Where things I hope to have some day
Eventually might come my way
Where a guy breaks even now and then

Where finally I'll get some slack and I won't have to break my back
Tryin' to keep the ends from comin' loose
I'm lookin' for the bright side of the blues

I'm always lookin' for the bright side of the blues
