I dreamed I did a good job and I got well paid
Blew it all at the penny arcade
A hundred dollars on a Kewpie doll
I guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl, that’s right

With the sun way up in the sky
When you’re sad
Let that sad come through
Singing little blue song for you
Little blue song for you
Let your heart go, let them winds blow
There’s so much you can learn
