I Got a Right to Sing the Blues

I've got a right to sing the blues
Got the right to moan and sigh
I've got a right to sit and cry
Down along the river

A certain girl in this old town
Keeps dragging my heart around
All I see for me is misery

I've got the right to sing the blues
Got the right to moan and cry
I've got a right to sit and cry
Down along the river

Call it love say what you choose
I've got a right to sing the blues
I've got a right, got a right
Got a right to sing the blues
Got the right to moan and sigh
Got a right to sit and cry
Down along the river

Soon that deep blue sea
Is gonna be calling me
Call it love, say what you choose
I've got a right to sing the blues
The blues, the blues, the blues
I've got a right to sing the blues
