I've gotta right to sing the blues
I've gotta right to feel lowdown
I've gotta 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 gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta 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 gotta right to sing the blues

I've gotta right to sing the blues
I've gotta right to feel lowdown
I've gotta 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 gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta right to sit and cry
Down around the river
Soon the deep blue sea
Will be callin' me
It must be love say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues
