Consumption Blues (Me, a guitar, a goofy story)

Consumption Love Written and Performed By Doug Jackson Well, I woke up this morning, like any other day but, I discovered something different, had come over me to stay I don’t have the blues, but there’s things I can’t do All because I’ve fallen helpless, so deep in love with you Chorus I can’t eat, and I can’t sleep, I can’t even hold a brush to warsh my teeth I can’t think, and I can’t drink I can’t even close my eyes, tight enough to blink I can’t breathe, and I can’t believe how lovin’ you’s consumin’ all my needs I had a good friend, take me downtown where they put me in the hospital, and funny little gown Doc says I’m done, if you don’t come Ain’t a prayer of hope in sight, if you ain’t here by tonight Chorus I can’t eat, and I can’t sleep, I can’t even hold a brush to warsh my teeth I can’t think, and I can’t drink I can’t even close my eyes, tight enough to blink I can’t breathe, and I can’t believe how lovin’ you’s consumin’ all my needs Now, this is my last, letter to you Just forget all of them others, I wasn’t thinkin’ straight then too I know it’s out of your way, but I need you today ‘Cause they brung on in the Chaplain, no chance I’ll recuperate Chorus I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, I can’t even hold a brush to warsh my teeth I can’t think, I can’t drink I can’t even close my eyes, tight enough to blink I can’t breathe, and I can’t believe how lovin’ you’s consumin’ all my needs Now, I hope I don’t seem, like I’m beggin’ again but, it’s come down to critical stages, that I see you ‘fore the end So, if you would only, have mercy on me And say you’ll be my wife, you can save this poor man’s life Chorus Cuzz, I can’t eat, and I can’t sleep, I can’t even hold a brush to warsh my feet I can’t think, and I can’t drink I can’t even close my eyes, tight enough to blink And, I can’t breath, and I can’t believe how lovin’ you’s consumin’ all my needs Yea, how lovin’ you’s just suckin’ up my needs…
