People say you love but one at time

For every woman there's a man

My baby say she wasn't put here forever

So she's gonna get as many as she can

What can i do

Yes, i just sing the blues

Well, i just sing the blues

'cause that's the only thing i know to do



Well, some people may be wrong sometimes

But they can't be wrong all the time

Like they say a cat has nine lives

Nine loves has the woman of mine

What can i do

Yes, i just sing the blues

Well, i just sing the blues

'cause that's the only thing i know to do



Well, the women are funny these days

They do wrong in so many ways

They'll have a man twiddling his fingers

Or either drinking his life away

What can i do

Yes, i just sing the blues

Well, i just sing the blues

'cause that's the only thing i know to do
