BRAND NEW BLUES

Well I used to drink whisky
But I won’t do that any more
Yeah I used to drink whisky
Bu I won’t do that any more
Because since I followed Jesus
I chased that old mistress right out the door.

Well I used to smoke on Sundays
A little grass would get me high
Yeah I used to smoke on Sundays
A little grass would get me high
But since I followed Jesus, I found out
He’s got the only way to fly.

There’s lots of things that try to make you happy
But they never last too long
Lots of things that try to satisfy
But they’ll never do it, no matter how strong
But if you follow Jesus
He’s going to give you a brand new song.

Yeah I used to drink whisky
But I won’t do that any more
And I used to smoke on Sunday
But every Monday morning you’d find me down on the floor
But since I follow Jesus
I don’t have to sing the blues any more.
