Why I Sing The Blues -B.B.King
Everybody wants to know
Why I sing the blues
Yes,I say everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well,I've been around a long time
I really have paid my dues
When I first got the blues
They brought me over on a ship
Men were standing over me
And a lot more with a whip
And everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well,I've been around a long time
Mm,I've really paid my dues
I've laid in a ghetto flat
Cold and numb
I heard the rats tell the bedbugs
To give the roaches some
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes,I've been around a long time
People,I've paid my dues
I stood in line
Down at the County Hall
I heard a man say
We're gonna build
Some new apartments for y'all
And everybody wanna know
Yes,they wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes,I've been around a long,long time
Yes,I've really,really paid my dues
Now I'm gonna play Lucille
My kid's gonna grow up
Gonna grow up to be a fool
'Cause they ain't got no more room
No more room for him in school
And everybody wanna know
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
I say I've been around a long time
Yes,I've really paid some dues
Yeah,you know the company told me
Guess you're born to lose
Everybody around me,people
It seems like everybody got the blues
But I had em a long time
I've really,really paid my dues
You know I ain't ashamed of it,people
I just love to sing my blues
I walk through the cities,people
On my bare feet
I had a fill of catfish and chitterlings
Up in Downbill Street
You know I'm singing the blues
Yes,I really
I just have to sing my blues
I've been around a long time
People,I've really
Really paid my dues
Now Father Time is catching up with me
Gone is my youth
I look in the mirror everyday
And let it tell me the truth
I'm singing the blues
Mm,I just have to sing the blues
I've been around a long time
Yes,yes,I've really paid some dues
Yeah,they told me everything
Would be better out in the country
Everything was fine
I caught me a bus uptown,baby
And every people
All the people
Got the same trouble as mine
I got the blues,huh huh
I say I've been around a long time
I've really paid some dues
One more time,fellows
Blind man on the corner
Begging for a dime
The rollers come and caught him
And throw him in the jail for a crime
I got the blues
Mm,I'm singing my blues
I've been around a long time
Mm,I've really paid some dues
Can we do just one more
Oh I thought I'd go down to the welfare
To get myself some grits and stuff
But a lady stand up and she said
You haven't been around long enough
That's why I got the blues
Mm,the blues
I say,I've been around a long time
I've really,really paid my dues
Fellows,tell them one more time
Ha,ha,ha
That's all right,fellows
Yeah
