Thank God for the Blues

Sing it for me, sing it for you
Sing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do
Thank God, thank God for the blues
Singing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do

Singing what’s real, singing what’s true
Singing that’s what I’m here to do
I was born, born to sing the blues
Sing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do

There’s inspiration, there’s meditation too
There’s inspiration coming through
Singing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do
Way out is the way through
