Lyrics

I gotta right to sing the blues I gotta right to moan inside I gotta right to sit and cry Down around the river A certain man in this little town Keeps draggin my poor heart around All I see for me is misery Soon that deep blue sea Will be callin me It must be love say what you choose I gotta right to sing the blues I gotta right to sing the blues I gotta right to moan and cry I gotta sit and sigh Down around the river Soon that deep blue sea Will be callin me It must be love say what you choose I gotta right to sing the blues Theres nothing left for me Im full of misery I gotta right to sing the blues
