Every Time I Sing the Blues Lyrics
Somebody asked me, why I live the blues
I said the blues is all around me, I just find something I can use
And I feel it running through me, but I give it my heart and soul
I practice while I'm singing, let the feeling take control
[Chorus]
I'm just trying to tell the truth
Every time I sing the blues
Might think about a woman and how she done me wrong
I might think about some hard times when I was barely hanging on
I might think about a brother who still can't make things be
Some falling sisters selling it on the street
[Chorus]
I find my inspiration in tears and desperation
Sad, sad stories we all know so well
Along with one more story to tell
Here I am another night, another town along the way
Room full of people say they wanna hear me play
Yes there was some hard times, my luck cannot survive
It takes a whole lot of living to make us all come alive
[Chorus: x2]
I said the blues is all around me, I just find something I can use
And I feel it running through me, but I give it my heart and soul
I practice while I'm singing, let the feeling take control
I'm just trying to tell the truth
Every time I sing the blues
I might think about some hard times when I was barely hanging on
I might think about a brother who still can't make things be
Some falling sisters selling it on the street
Sad, sad stories we all know so well
Along with one more story to tell
Room full of people say they wanna hear me play
Yes there was some hard times, my luck cannot survive
It takes a whole lot of living to make us all come alive
