Why I Sing the Blues 歌詞
Why I Sing The Blues - Ike & Tina Turner
Everybody wants to know
Why I sing the blues
Yes I say everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well I've been around for a long time
I really have paid my dues
When I first got the blues
They brought me over on a ship
Men were standing over me
And a lot more with a whip
And everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well I've been around for a long time
Mm I've really paid my dues
I've laid in a ghetto flat
Cold and numb
I heard the rats tell the bedbugs
To give the roaches some
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes I've been around for a long time
People I've paid my dues
I stood in line
Down at the county hall
I heard a man say
We're gonna build
Some new apartments for y'all
And everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes I've been around for a long time
People I'll tell you I've paid my dues
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
I say I've been around a long time
Yes I've really paid some dues
I've really paid my dues
