La- dy sings the blues
She's got them bad, she feels so sad
Want the world to know
What the blues are all a-bout
La-dy sings the blues
She tells her side, noth-ing to hide
Now the world will know
Just what the blues are all a-bout
The blues ain't noth-in'
But a pain in your heart
When you get a bad start
When you and your man have to part
She ain't gon-na just
Sit a-round and cry
She knows she won't die
Be-cause she loves him
La-dy sings the blues
She's tell-ing you she's got them bad
Now the world will know
She's ne-ver gon-na sing them no more
No more
