Ticker Tape Blues

```json { "lyrics": "\nMonday morning, coffee's black and strong\nThought my portfolio could do no wrong\nSaw a little green, a hopeful, gentle sign\nFelt that Friday's paycheck was truly mine\nBut the ticker tape, it started to bleed red\Chased those sweet little numbers right out of my head\n\n\nOh, I got the Dow Jones blues, I got 'em deep in my soul\nThat wicked little number's taken all my control\nA rally is a sweet kiss that you know won't last\nA dip is just a memory of a better past\nYeah, the Wall Street blues got me watchin' the clock 'til it's done\n\n\nWednesday was a fighter, all swings and misses\nGave me false hope promises and serpent's kisses\nIt climbed a half a point, I felt a moment's grace\nThen it turned around and laughed right in my face\nMy buyin' power's weak, my margin's gettin' thin\nDon't know where the heartbreak ends and I begin\n\n\nOh, I got the Dow Jones blues, I got 'em deep in my soul\nThat wicked little number's taken all my control\nA rally is a sweet kiss that you know won't last\nA dip is just a memory of a better past\nYeah, the Wall Street blues got me watchin' the clock 'til it's done\n\n\nThirty years I've watched this screen just glow and fade\nSeen fortunes lost and foolish fortunes made\nYou'd think an old man's heart would learn and turn to stone\nBut every time it's green, I can't leave it alone\nIt's a fever, it's a gamble, it's a foolish, losing game\nAnd Monday morning, I'll be back to whisper its name\n\n\nOh, I got the Dow Jones blues, I got 'em deep in my soul\nThat wicked little number's taken all my control\nA rally is a sweet kiss that you know won't last\nA dip is just a memory of a better past\nYeah, the Wall Street blues got me watchin' the clock 'til it's done", "tags": "blues, rock, guitar, soulful, melancholic",
