ARETHA FRANKLIN - Why I Sing The Blues lyrics

rate me

Without a word of warnin' blues<br />

Walked in this mornin'<br />

And circled 'round my lonely room<br />

<br />

I didn't know why I had that sad<br />

And lonely feelin' until my baby called<br />

And said we were through<br />

<br />

For yesterday this time<br />

I sang a love song<br />

But today I'm singing the blues<br />

<br />

Strikes me kinda funny how love can be this way<br />

We were lovin' 'til last night honey, yeah<br />

I'm alone again today<br />

<br />

And it strikes me kinda funny<br />

How fate can be unfair<br />

That I come right on the losin' end<br />

In every, every love affair<br />

<br />

Yes, it must be, it must be meant for me<br />

That I should be the one<br />

Be the one to always lose<br />

<br />

For yesterday<br />

Yesterday this time I'd sing a love song, whoah<br />

Yeah, but right now I'm singin' the blues<br />

Whoah yeah, today I sing the blues
