It's So Hard, Singing the Blues

It's So Hard, Singing the Blues - Murray Head

It's so hard singing the blues baby

When you've never had to lose your pride

Can't tell dirt from the earth lady

And you think you've known your rights

Since birth baby

It's so hard singing the blues bady

When you've never had to lose your love

And you can't smell sweat

From perfume lady

When all you feel is for your womb baby

Were you thinking of learning

To satisfy a yearning

Gambling cares for woes

Deep desires burning

Wicked thoughts turning

Locked up where nobody goes

Can experience teach you

'Cos time will only eat you

And the thread of your life has been sewn

Trouble is you lose it

When you try to choose it

Thinking is entirely home grown

It's so

It's so hard baby singing the blues

When you don't know what they are

It's so hard baby singing the blues

When you don't know what they are

It's so hard singing the blues lady

When you've never had to lose your soul

And you said you knew your black

From your white lady

But have you seen the dark turn into light

It's so hard singing the blues lady

When you don't know what they are

It's so hard singing the blues lady

When you don't know what they are
