The format for a blues lyrics was quite specific: 3 lines in an A-A-B structure
A line - statement of the problem / difficulty
A line - restatement with the same words
B line - a solution / acceptance with the last word of B line rhyming with the last word of the A lines.
Here some examples:
These are mine:
Verse #1
You look at me and see a boy
Why girl, do you look at me and see a boy
I'll take your hand kiss your lips and be a man you can enjoy.
Verse #2
I've turned into the man I never thought I'd be
Oo girl, I've turned into the man I never thought I'd be
But I'm ready to step up and move all my life's debris.
It's actually kind of fun. You should try it and if you want, post it on the comment section.

Here some examples:
A: My part-time job is really bad
A: Yah, my part-time job is really bad
B: Better get a copy of the classified ad. (Note how "ad" rhymes with "bad"?)
