Dancing my blues away lyrics

When I was a young boy

I hear my Mama cry

She say my poor little darling

He got tears in his eyes

I say don't worry Mama

I will get there one day

Till then I'm just dancing my blues away

She said your Papa's gone crazy

'Cos he don't understand

I say Mama I can't change it

'Cos it's just the way I am

Yeah I was born in the north wind

In a sky of freezing grey

That's why I'm dancing my blues away

Now the years have gone by

But there's still a burning flame

You and me together

I know it's still the same

Now I got tears by the truck-load

I got a thousand broken hearts

But you'll always find me ready

To make a brand new start

'Cos I found a secret

So the devil he can't stay

I keep on dancing my blues away
