Ray Charles - I Chose To Sing The Blues слова песни
I could have been a gambler
`coz I`m good with the cards
I could have been a lover
breakin` other`s hearts
and I feel so silly
bettin` on the dice
and a lover seldom sees
the same girl twice
and that is why (that is why)
that`s why I chose (that`s why I chose)
I chose to sing the blues, yes I did
now, I could have been a doctor
helping the sick
and I could have been a lawyer
but you know that ain`t my stick
`coz I feel so bad
if a patient didn`t do well
and I feel just as bad
to leave a client in jail
and that is why (that is why)
that`s why I chose (that`s why I chose)
I chose to sing the blues
(sax solo)
Now a man has a lot
that he could present
just to think I could have been
president
but I can`t understand
what politicians say
so I wanna talk to you
in my own little way
and that is why (that is why)
that`s why I chose (that`s why I chose)
I chose to sing the blues
Yes I did, friends
Don`t you know what I mean
I like what I`m doin`
You know, I like the blues
Everybody understands
What I mean when I say
Something like this here
Unnnnnnn-hoo
Yeah
Yeah-hoo
That`s what I`m talkin` `bout when I sing
