You can love a woman
Who ain't even your wife
And you can cut the fool
Without using a knife
But you can't sing the blues
Unless you live the life

You can sail the world
On a scenic cruise
But you can't sing the blues
Unless you had 'em right
No you can't sing the blues
Unless you've been uptight

You can have a headache
And never show the pain'
Or open your umbrella
And never feel the rain
You can't sing about the blues
That you never had
No you can't sing about the blues
Unless you've had it bad
