Ella Fitzgerald - Ella Fitzgerald - The Harold Arlen Songbook, Vol. 2

I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues

I don't care fool
Knows I am blue
My song wouldn't take long
To give my heart a way

I know it's plain
My heart's in pain
My song couldn't be long
To someone felling gay

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to feel low-down
I 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 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 gotta right to sing the blues
