Everybody Has The Blues Lyrics

Poor puppy, you look so sad
I guess you think that no one ever
Felt so bad before

Everybody has the blues
Everybody has the blues
Everybody knows the way that you feel today

Everybody gets to sit and cry
Everybody gets to wonder why
Everybody gets to watch the sky turn grey

Maybe you lost your job
Maybe you lost your girl
Maybe you feel like you're losing your mind
That's not the end of the world

Everybody gets to feel some pain
Everyone got to get to caught out in the rain
Everybody got some days that they can't explain

Everybody got the blues
Everybody has the blues
Everybody knows the way that you feel today

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
