【歌詞】I'm Gonna Tell You

I'm gonna tell you why I sing the blues
Yes, I'm gonna tell you why I sing the blues
Well, I've been down for a long time
I really have paid my dues

When I first got the blues I was standing on the crossroad
I've got lost my way, I don't know which way to go
Yes, I'm gonna tell you why I sing the blues
Well, I've been down for a long time
I really have paid my dues

People around me seems don't let me free
I feel so stiff, baby, I can't do what I want
I'm gonna tell you why I sing the blues
Well, I've been down for a long time
I really have paid my dues

Now the world is so hard to make good living
Everybody around me seems they suffer with their blues
Don't you wanna know, why I sing the blues
Well, I've been down for a long time
I really have paid my dues

Well, my boss told me, guess you're born to lose
What are you doing, man? Your works won't make nothing better
But I don't care about what they say
I've really, really paid my dues
You know I ain't ashamed of it, people
I just love to sing my blues

I've been downhearted, I've been knocked out
Many people 'round the world has same mental matters
That's why, that's why, that's why I sing the blues
Due to keep the Blues alive
And to ease their worried mind

Don't you wanna know, people
Why I sing the blues
Yes, that's why, that's why, that's why
That's why I sing the blues
Well, I've been down for a long time
I really have paid my dues
