I can't sing the blues, nothing in my life that I can use
I can't sing the blues, you may hear me complain, every time it rains all the bills are overdue
Oh, but I can't sing the blues, at the end of the day, making hard-earned pay, I'll be coming home to you
But I can't sing the blues, I can't sing the blues, oh, I can't sing the blues, I can't sing the blues
The blues are for the sad and lonely, they wouldn't be blue if they only knew
The love I had for you, the love i have you
That's why I can't sing the blues, I can't sing the blues
That's why I can't sing the blues
I'm sad and my heart is broken, the slurred words that were spoken cut my heart right in two
Now I can sing the blues, I can sing the blues
Now I can sing the blues
Even though we're not together, I think of you whenever I see the moon, now I sing the blues
Now I can sing the blues, I can sing the blues, I can sing the blues
Then I walked away, the blues are for the sad and lonely, if they only knew
The love I have for you, the love I have for you
Now I sing the blues, i can sing the blues
That's why I can sing the blues
