Ella's Contribution to the Blues

Ella's Contribution to the Blues - Ella Fitzgerald/Leroy Kirkland Orchestra

Written by：Ella Fitzgerald

Well everybody's

Everybody's singing the blues

I say everybody's

Everybody's singing the blues

Well I've got news for you

I'm singing them too

'Cause my man and I have parted

I hear he's found somebody new

My man and I have parted

I hear he's found somebody new

Well I've got news I've found me somebody too

It was great while it lasted

We had lots of fun

I'm not living in the past here

What is done is done

'Cause I've found me

I've found me somebody too

And if they ask you just say

This is ella's contribution to the blues

He thinks I'm crying on my pillow

But I'm having fun instead

Don't talk about the gray skies

I'm gonna paint the town red

'Cause I've found me

Yes I've found me somebody too

And if they ask you just say

This is ella's contribution
