Billie Holiday - Velvet Mood

I've Got A Right To Sing The Blues

I've got a right to sing the blues
I've got a right to feel low down
I've 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 inside
I got a right to sit and cry
Down around the river

I know that 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've got a right to sing the blues
I've got a right to feel low down
I got a right to hang around
Way 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 inside
I got a right to sit and cry
Way down around the river

Soon that deep blue sea
Will be callin' me
It must be love, say what you choose
I got a right to sing the blues
