Every Time I Sing the Blues -Buddy Guy Somebody asked me why I live the blues I said the blues is all around me;I just find something I can use And I feel it running through me but I give it my heart and soul I practice while I'm singing;let the feeling take control I'm just tryin'to tell the truth Every time I sing the blues Might think about a woman and how she done me wrong I might think about some hard times when I was barely hanging on I might think about a brother who still can't make things be Some fallin'sisters sellin'it on the street I'm just tryin'to tell the truth Every time I sing the blues I find my inspiration in tears and desperation Sad sad stories we all know so well Along with one more story to tell Here I am another night;another town along the way Room full of people say they wanna hear me play Yes there was some hard times my luck cannot survive It takes a whole lot of livin;to make us all come alive I'm just tryin'to tell the truth Every time I sing the blues I'm just tryin'to tell the truth Every time I sing the blues I'm just tryin'to tell the truth
