Does anyone know who recorded this song? Not sure if this is the title. Just guessing. Thanks

Fat City Blues

I've got a story, it's sad but true.
Happened to me and it could happen to you.
I wasn't always a 9 to 5.
It wasn't such a struggle to survive.

It was satin suits and cowboy boots
Steel guitars and crowded bars
Drinking wine at breakfast time.
I get those Fat City Blues

I had a friend his name was Jim
Chances are you heard of him
It's not often he comes by
Can't say that I'm surprised

It was satin suits and cowboy boots
Steel guitars and crowded bars
Drinking wine at breakfast time.
I get those Fat City Blues

I had a girl and her name was Clare
She and Jim took off somewhere
Now at nights I try to lose those
Fat City Blues

I know your young, you like to play
You'd like to hit the road some day
I've been there and it's bad news
I get those Fat City Blues

It was lazy days and matinees
Stetson hats and Nashville cats
Getting stoned and phoning home
I get those Fat City Blues

It was satin suits and cowboy boots
Steel guitars and crowded bars
Drinking wine at breakfast time.
I get those Fat City Blues

Drinking wine at breakfast time.
I get those Fat City Blues.
