I'm Not Ashamed To Sing The Blues

Phew

Oh, no

Mm-hmm

Oh no, oh, no

Young people, young people say that they don't like the blues

But you and I both know that that's not really true

Let me tell y'all that say, that you don't understand

I guarantee you will someday

You might as well make your plan

You won't be ashamed to sing the blues

And I'm not ashamed, oh, Lord, to sing the blues

And I'm not ashamed, oh Lord, to sing the blues, yeah

Young people say, that the blues is really dumb

But they just don't know exactly where they're coming from

But you just wait till your heart is all tangled up inside

You'll be singing the blues with tears all in your eyes

Don't be ashamed

Oh Lord, don't be ashamed to sing the blues

And I'm not ashamed

Oh Lord, I'm not ashamed to sing the blues

No, I'm not, oh, no

Listen, now you've heard my story

And I hope you understand the blues is going to get you

You're playing a losing hand

Let's keep on living and laughing, failing and achieving

Laughing and crying

Leaving and grieving

Oh Lord, You won't be ashamed

No You won't be ashamed

To sing a blue black

To sing a blue black body

I'm not ashamed, oh no, oh no

I'm not ashamed to sing a blue black body
