Say that you don't mind
When they look down their nose at us
Cause they all live and die
Laugh and cry
Just like the rest of us
These people never smile
The way they did back home
But those days have come and gone
My youth is gone
And I have grown to have these
Deep valley blues
It's going to take me too much time
To make my way back home to you
And you know it ain't the distance honey
It's the altitude
I got them
Deep valley blues
Call it like you see it
Cause it is what it is
So many miles away from old St. Lou
Almost forgot it exist
And I keep spending more than I make
And I can hardly pay this rent
A vicious cycle that's been burning
And it's burning from both ends
I got them
Deep valley blues
It's going to take me too much time
To make my way back home to you
And you know it ain't the distance honey
It's the altitude
I got them
Deep valley blues
Deep valley blues
It's going to take me too much time
To make my way back home to you
And you know it ain't the distance honey
It's the altitude
I got them deep valley blues
I got them deep valley blues
I got them deep San Fernando Valley blues
