Julie London - About the Blues
текст песни

About the blues about the blues

They always hit you when you can't hit back
And when they're blue enough
There's something black about the blues
And if you bet they're gonna fade, you lose

About the blues i know the blues
They serve you memories on a plate of tears
They know your appetite will last for years
You can't refuse
You join the club and gotta pay your dues

When you hang your hat in heartbreak hall
Your wing-broken dreams must crawl
And your gloom will continue to grow
Until there's nothing that you don't know

About the blues about the blues

You can't look forward to
The day you're free
You look, but yesterday is all you see
Don't buy a book about it
Just ask me about the blues

About the blues
