Today I sing the Blues
Aretha Franklin

Without a word of warning
The blues walked in this morning
And circled 'round my lonely room

I didn't know why I had that sad and lonely feeling
Until my baby said 'we're through'
Yesterday this time I sang a love song
But today I'm singing the blues

Now,
I know the explanation
But to me that's no consolation
It just goes to show you
No matter how you love everybody's got to lose
And since I lost and rather walk around and worry
I guess I'll just walk on the darkest avenue

Yesterday this time I sang a lovesong
But today I'm singing the blues

That strikes me kinda funny
How love can be this way
'Cause we were lovin' last night honey
Oh, but I'm singing alone again today

And it strikes me kinda funny
How fate can be so unfair
'Cause I seem to come right on the losin' end
In every love affair
Yeah it's gotta be meant for me
That I should be the one to always lose

Yesterday this time I sang a lovesong
But, but right now i'm singing the blues, yeah, yeah, mmmmmm
I'm singing the... blues...
