today i sing the blues
Without a word of warning The blues walked in this morning And circled round my lonely room I didn't know why I had  That sad and lonely feeling Until my baby called and said we're through, ooo Woah yesterday, this time I sang a love song But today I'm singin' the blues  Mmm, it strikes me kind of funny How love can be this way We were lovers last night, honey But I'm alone again today It strikes me kind of funny How fate can be unfair I come out on the losin' end In every, every love affair Yes it must be, must be written for me That I should be the one, be the one to always lose For yesterday, yesterday, this time I sang a love song Oh, oh but right now I sing the blues, oh yeah
