Sometimes I'd sing the blues when I know I should be prayin'

Sometimes I'd sing the blues when I know I should be prayin'

'Fore I share the world's troubles it's why I feel this way

I wake up some mornin' feel like I wanna cry

I began to sing the blues yes to ease my worried mind

I was born with emotions and a song was in my soul

Another part of my story it may never be told

If I only knew when my trouble would end

If I only knew when my trouble would end

I'd kiss bad luck goodbye and start all over again
