I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues

I got a right to sing the blues

I got a right to feel low down

I got a right to hang around

Down around the river

A certain man in this old town

Keeps draggin' my poor heart around

All I see for me

Is misery

I got a right to sing the blues

I got a right to moan and sigh

I got a right to sit and cry

Down around the river

I know the deep blue sea

Will soon be callin' me

It must be love

Say what you choose

I got a right to sing the blues

I know the deep blue sea

Will soon be callin' me

It must be love

Say what you choose

I got a right to sing the blues
