All my life I had to struggle, I paid some heavy duesSqueekin' out a livin', playin' easy bluesThen one day my music made me a millionaireI bought a big old mansion with central heated airNow I got more money than I know how to useGot everything a man could want, but I ain't got no bluesSuccess for me could only lead to my immediate doom'cause I can't play the blues in an airconditioned roomNow I was doin' better with a smaller piece of pieBut all my fame and fortune I can't identifyI lost the inspiration that came natural in the startI have to have a mean old woman, just to break my heartNow my life's too easy, I'd be getting softI used to play the blues all day, but now I just play golfNow all my pain is rearranged, my life is changes too'cause I can't play the blues in an airconditioned roomYou know what I'm sayingIt's kinda hard to play the bluesIf you don't have any problemsYou might think I'm crazy, you might think I'm strangeThe first thing in the morning I'm gonna make a changeI throw away my money, I move back to that shagDo whatever I gotta do to get that old feelin' backI know I'd be feelin' better with nothing left to loseWhen times are bad, the less I had, the better I played the bluesI buy myself some turkey and wine, and howl it at the moon'cause I can't play the blues in an airconditioned roomIf I should die tomorrow you can write it on my tomb'He couldn't play the blues in an airconditioned room'
