Song Sung Blue - Live At Greek Theatre, Los Angeles/1972

This is not a sad song
A sad song
To sing when you're alone
In its way, a glad song, yes, a glad song
The simple tune that simply seems to make you feel good when you sing
Along

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one

Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when you take the blues and make a song
Good Lord, you sing them out again
Come, sing them out again

Song sung blue
Weeping like a willow
Song sung blue
Sleeping on my pillow

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know it, start feeling good
You simply got no choice

(I bet anybody in the whole world can sing this song, I don't care how bad you sing)
(You can sing this song, it's just that easy)
(Old people can sing it, and infants can sing it, and chickens can sing it, and dogs can sing it)
(And gorillas can sing it, even frogs can sing it)
(And now it's your turn and my turn to sing it together)
(So take a deep breath)
(Cast away your inhibitions for just about 16 bars, in other words, here goes... real easy)

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one (okay)
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one (second verse)
Song sung blue
Weeping like a willow... (try by yourself)

(Okay, everybody hear me)

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know it, start feeling good

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
(Sing it right!)
