I'm singing the blues but I'm not really sad
I'm singing the blues but I'm not really sad
You might think I'm mad 'cause I'm not really sad
And I'm singing the blues
I'm not singing the greens or the reds or the pinks
I'm not singing the purples if that's what you think
Some colors you see but there's one that you sing
And that's the blues
The blues make me feel good the way that they should
The blues make me feel good the way that they should
So the next time you're sad you know what to do
You sing the blues
