JOE LYNN TURNER The blues they ain't nothing But a good man feelin' bad A low down case of sad Lost the best you've ever had Well it ain't no secret Love don't live here anymore She just slipped right out the door She won't be back no more Thought out love was built to last Stood on solid ground But it was just a house of cards And, girl, you tore it down The walls started shakin' And the tears started shortin' the fuse The foundation was quakin', yeah Well, there's trouble in the house of love Baby, you're the blueprint for the blues They say that a woman Is the architect of pain She's the bringer of the rain Drag a good man down in flames The moment I met you, girl I should have seen the truth Through the lies and the abuse Your youth was your excuse I lay here in this bed alone And through these tears I laugh I thought our love was cut in stone It became my epitaph That's when the walls started shakin' And my head started blowin' a fuse And my heart it was breakin' There's trouble in the house of love Baby, you're the blueprint for the blues The walls started shakin' And my head started blowin' a fuse And my heart it was breaking, baby There's trouble in the house love
