Intro

Verse 1

I was born in a town where the rivers flow free

On a January night when the cold winds freeze

I got an Irish name and an injury

Blessing and a curse cast down on me

Ain't nobody got the blues like me

Ain't nobody got the blues like me

Verse 2

Was a blood red sky on the morning tide

Was a cold wind blowing when I left that night

And the morning bells rang, alright, alright

Shoulda stayed home with you that night

Ain't nobody played the fool like I

Ain't nobody played the fool like I

Bridge

Things got bad and things got worse

Half like blessing, half like curse

It's these blessings so hard to see sometimes

Gotta little clearer about dusk last night

Ain't nobody got a blessing like mine

Ain't nobody got a blessing like mine

It's a red sky night and I'm doing alright

It's a red sky night and I'm doing just fine

Harmonica solo

It's a red sky night and I'm quite alright

It's a red sky night and I'm doing just fine

It's a red sky night and I'm doing alright

It's a red sky night and I'm doing just fine
