It is curious how the mind works. While having a philisophical discussion over dinner about, How some people seem to live in strife simply because that is their comfort zone... My dinner companion mentioned that "Yes, Some folks seem to live on the EDGE OF MISERY"..... So it seemed like a good tag line to build a song around. Soooo...This is a pitiful glimpse into the way my mind seems to grasp at concepts and literate ideas.!! But in the end...."It is Da Blues".!!
Buck Twenty Blues
Lyrics
Got a dollar in my pocket
Got a dime in both my shoes
The Edge of Misery, Well it aint no place to be
With these Damned, Buck-Twenty Blues
Worn out, broken down and busted
Need a break, I've paid my dues
But that Big Boss Man, He Got a different plan
I got nothing left to lose
Chorus
Now some folks feel, that greenback dollar bill
Will lead you to a better life
Now I don't know bout that, because my habitat
Is full of monetary strife
I put a Nickel in the Jukebox
Spent a quarter for a beer
Forty cent for lunch, and I got a hunch
Four Bits wont get me out of here
Chorus
Now some folks feel, that greenback dollar bill
Will lead you to a better life
Now I don't know bout that, because my habitat
Is full of monetary strife
Got a dollar in my pocket
Got a dime in both my shoes
The Edge of Misery, Well it aint no place to be
With these Damned, Buck-Twenty Blues
From a Blues fan -- 5*****s

Some people "thrive on misery", and do very well with it, it's an acquired taste, much like raw oysters on a saltine cracker
