《Why I Sing The Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Why I Sing The Blues - Ike Turner/Tina Turner (蒂娜·特纳)

[00:00:24] Everybody wants to know

[00:00:27] Why I sing the blues

[00:00:31] Yes I say everybody wanna know

[00:00:34] Why I sing the blues

[00:00:38] Well I've been around for a long time

[00:00:42] I really have paid my dues

[00:00:46] When I first got the blues

[00:00:48] They brought me over on a ship

[00:00:51] Men were standing over me

[00:00:52] And a lot more with a whip

[00:00:54] And everybody wanna know

[00:00:57] Why I sing the blues

[00:01:01] Well I've been around for a long time

[00:01:04] Mm I've really paid my dues

[00:01:09] I've laid in a ghetto flat

[00:01:11] Cold and numb

[00:01:13] I heard the rats tell the bedbugs

[00:01:15] To give the roaches some

[00:01:17] Everybody wanna know

[00:01:20] Why I'm singing the blues

[00:01:24] Yes I've been around for a long time

[00:01:27] People I've paid my dues

[00:01:54] I stood in line

[00:01:56] Down at the county hall

[00:01:58] I heard a man say

[00:01:59] We're gonna build

[00:02:00] Some new apartments for y'all

[00:02:01] And everybody wanna know

[00:02:05] Why I'm singing the blues

[00:02:09] Yes I've been around for a long time

[00:02:11] People I'll tell you I've paid my dues

[00:02:24] Everybody wanna know

[00:02:27] Why I'm singing the blues

[00:02:31] I say I've been around a long time

[00:02:34] Yes I've really paid some dues

[00:02:57] I've really paid my dues
