"I'm Done With the Blues" and "Turn to Him". Songs #30 and 31.

"I'm done with the blues" is really one of my favorite originals. I especially enjoy the chords on this little Highway One Fender Telecaster. Then the second song on this set, "Turn to Him" is another special song. Songs about things we go through every day. God is good and he has blessed me in more ways than I can count. I hope these songs bless you.

I've been down this road before,

ain't goin down that road no more,

Baby, I'm through with the blues.

Don't be looking for me to cry,

I'm tired of listenin to the same old lies,

Baby, I'm done with the blues.

The way you've treated me, You know it's just not fair,

I'm tired of being lonely, I've had all that I can bare.

No more sittin home alone,

waitin for you to dial the phone,

You're baby is through with the blues.

(instrumental)

No more sittin home alone, I've found me a sunny day,

I've torn up all your letters and I threw them all away.

I got a new life waitin for me,

gotta get back to reality,

So baby, I'm done with the blues.

(instrumental)

No more sittin home alone, I've found me a sunny day,

I've torn up all your letters and I threw them all away.

I got a new life waitin for me,

gotta get back to reality, 

So baby,

I'm done with the blues

Turn to Him

  Johnny Blodgett Composer

Turn to him, when when you're all alone,

Turn to him when the nights are long,

Don't give in to the sinner's song,

Turn to him and he'll make you strong.

(recitation)

You know so many times we feel the world has been so unkind,

And the problems of the every day are so heavy on our minds,

We start thinking in terms of nickles and dimes,

Let's not forget the one who made the sunshine.

Turn to him, he's allways there,

Turn to him, he will aways care,

He died but he lives our burdens to share.

Turn to him, you'll find him there.

(recitation)

So many things are happening in our world today,

So many souls have found the wrong way.

The books and theaters advertise Satin's moral decay,

And those who would follow, can't see the awful price they must pay.

Turn to him, when you can't go on,

He waits for your call, he'll make you strong.

When everything's lost and all hope is gone,

Turn to him and you'll never be alone.

(recitation)

No matter how wrong your way has been,

All you need do is believe in him,

He layed down his life to pay for our sin,

Turn to him and you can start your life again.

Turn to him, he's allways there,

Turn to him, he will aways care,

He died but he lives our burdens to share.

Turn to him, you'll find him there.
