I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues

Harold Arlen

I gotta right to sing the blues

I gotta right to feel low-down



I gotta right to hang around



Down around the river



A certain gal in this old town



Keeps draggin' my poor (old) heart around



All I see, for me is - misery



I gotta right to sing the blues



I gotta right to moan and sigh



I gotta right to sit and cry



Down around the river



I know the deep blue sea



Will soon be callin' me



It must be love - say what you choose



I gotta right to sing the blues
