I Choose to Sing the Blues
Lyricist:R Charles, J Holliday
I could've been a gambler â€~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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
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 can't take it no more Come on, darlin', got to sing the blues Got to make some money sometimes, baby
