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 I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan inside
Right to sit and cry
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 I gotta right to sing the blues
Gotta right to moan and cry
I gotta right to 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 There's nothing left for me
I'm full of misery
I gotta right to sing the blues
