75.I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues

Written:Harold Arlen/Ted Koehler
Arranger:Skip Martin

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to feel low-down
I gotta right to hang around
Down
around the river

A certain gal in this old town
Keeps draggin' my poor (old) heart around
All I see,
for me is - misery

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta right to
sit and cry
Down around the river

I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me
It must be love -
say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues
