Tony Bennett
I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues
[Chorus: Tony Bennett]
I got a right to sing the blues
I got a right to feel low down
I got a right to hang around
Down along the river
[Verse 1: Tony Bennett]
A certain woman in this town
Keeps draggin' my poor heart around
All I see for me is misery
[Chorus: Tony Bennett]
I got a right to sing the blues
I got a right to moan and sigh
I got a right to sit and cry
Down along the river, river, the river
[Refrain: Tony Bennett]
I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me
It must be love, say what you choose
I got a right to swing the blues
[Chorus: Bonnie Raitt]
I got a right to sing the blues
I got a right to feel low down
I got a right to hang around
Down along the river
[Verse 2: Bonnie Raitt]
A certain man on this town
Keeps draggin' my heart around
And all I see for me is misery
[Chorus: Bonnie Raitt]
I got a right to sing the blues
I got a right to moan and sigh
Got a right to sit and cry
Down along the river
[Refrain: Bonnie Raitt]
I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me
It must be love, say what you choose
I got a right to sing the blues
[Chorus: Tony Bennett & Bonnie Raitt]
I got a right to sing the blues
I got a right to moan and cry
I got a right to sing the blues
Down along the river
[Refrain: Tony Bennett & Bonnie Raitt]
I know the deep blue sea
Ooh, that deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me
Callin' me
It must be love, say what you choose
I got a right to sing the blues
[Outro: Bonnie Rait, Tony Bennett & Both]
It must be love, say what you choose
We got a right to sing the blues, the blues
I got a right to sing the blues
