Lady Sings The Blues - Live At The Newport Jazz Festival/1957

And now I'd like to try and do a little tune for you
That I recorded for Norman Granz, Clef Records
My tune is titled "Lady sings the blues", I do hope you like it

Lady sings the blues
She's got them bad
She feels so sad
Wants the world to know
Just what her blues is all about

Lady sings the blues
She tells her side
Nothing to hide
Now the world will know
Just what her blues is all about

The blues ain't nothin'
But a pain in your heart
When you get a bad start
You and your man have to part

But I ain't gonna just sit around and cry
And I know I won't die
'Cause I love him

Lady sings the blues
She's got 'em bad
But now the world will know
She's never gonna sing 'em no more

No more
