These are the lyrics to "dress blues" not "the blue". The lyrics should be as follows...
Don't roll away that stone, girl
Leave it where it lay
You think he's coming home but you know it's not today
I think the road will break me and never fill the holes,
but every time I'm saved I stop beating out a soul
I'm too scared to ask the right questions
and too tired to fill the right shoes
so I'll take advantage of the blues
I'll take advantage of the blue
There really ain't no difference
in Michigan and Maine
If you ain't here to see this I'm missing just the same
Your skin as soft as water, same temperature as me
I'd never know I touched you if you didn't let me see
I'd crawl to meet you if you'd just stay there,
and finally have a thing I couldn't bear to lose
So I'll take advantage of the blues
I'll take advantage of the blue
Mark me up so they can see the best of me
Hold me down so I can't find a drink
Dance so I don't have to think
I believe this song is about being a recording artist out on the road all the time and how he draws his inspiration from being on the road (I think the road will break me and never fill the holes,
but every time I'm saved I stop beating out a soul) but is losing the person at home whose waiting for him to return (You think he's coming home but you know it's not today) However I really have no idea. Love the song though. Looking to find the tabs for this so if anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be Dyn-o-mite!!
