When The Lady Sings The Blues

When this old world gets the, the best of me

Life don't come quite so easily

The only thing that brings a little peace to me

Is when the lady sings the blues

The wolves keep knocking on my front door (my front door)

I just can't seem to pay the rent no more

The one thing that I keep longing for (longing for)

Is when the lady sings the blues

Singin' 'bout the hard time, standin' in the silver line

Prayin' help is on the way

Feelin' kind of helpless, hopin' for some kindness

Waitin' on that sunshiny day

Just when I think I'm gonna, gonna come on wild

Feels like the walls just start toppling down

The one thing that keeps me hanging around (hanging around)

Is when the lady sings the blues

Singin' 'bout the hard time, standin' in the silver line

Prayin' help is on the way

Feelin' kind of helpless, hopin' for some kindness

Waitin' on that sunshiny day

"Good Morning, Heartache" by Lady 'Day

"God Bless The Child", who chased my blues away

And "Ain't Nobody's Business" gonna get me through

When the lady sings the blues

Ain't it nice what a little moonlight can do?

When the lady sings the blues

When the lady sings the blues
