Conway Twitty - Too White To Sing The Blues lyrics

rate me

The day I hit this music town looking for a deal<br />

I was green as government ink on a twenty dollar bill<br />

I signed a lot of papers, fidn't know what I had to lose<br />

Make no mistake about it, now, you can't be too white to sing the blues.<br />

<br />

Some folks make it fast down here, some folks make it slow<br />

Learning how the hard way taught me everything I know<br />

When that old highway is your teacher a country boy can get confused<br />

But one thing I know for certain, you can't be too white to sing the blues.<br />

<br />

I've learned how to whistle, I've learned how to lose<br />

I've walked a mile in everybody's shoes<br />

Well, you can laugh out loud if you want to<br />

But you can't be too white to sing the blues.<br />

<br />

--- Instrumental ---<br />

<br />

Someday when I'm old and rich and I don't work no more<br />

Gonna find myself a rockin' chair and sit on my front porch<br />

And while that old sun is settin' a I'm gonna howl at the risin' moon<br />

Well, you can go out rockin' now nut you can't be too white to sing the blues.<br />

<br />

I've learned how to whistle, I've learned how to lose<br />

I've walked a mile in everybody's shoes<br />

Well, you can laugh out loud if you want to<br />

But you can't be too white to sing yhe blues.<br />

<br />

I said, you can't be too white to sing the blues, yeah...
