I Choose to Sing the Blues (2016 Remaster)

歌詞

(J. Holiday/R. Charles) I could've been a gambler ‘Cause I'm good with cards I could've been a lover, darlin' Breakin' others' hearts But I feel so silly Bettin' on the dice A lover seldom sees The same girl twice Baby, that's why Honey, that's why I choose, yes I do Hey, now, baby, I choose to sing the blues I gotta get down and sing the blues Well, I could've been a doctor Workin' on the sick I could've been a lawyer But that ain't my schtick Because I'd feel so bad If a man did not get well I'd plea something bad That ended up in jail And, baby, that's why You know, honey, that's why I choose Got to sing and play Just about every day You know what I'm tryin' to say There's a lot of things That a young man might present You play you're cards right, baby You might be a president But I never understood What a politician might say Guess I like to talk in my own peculiar way And, baby that's why Darlin' that's why I choose Hey, now, baby I've got to say, everyday Got to play, come on, baby Got to sing the blues, baby Don't know nothin' else Got to sing the blues Come on now, baby Got to, got to, got to, got to Got to sing the blues, baby Got to sing My baby take all my money And give it to some other man I cant take it no more Come on, darlin' Got to sing the blues Got to make some money sometimes, baby
