People say you love but one at time

For every woman there's a man

My baby say she wasn't put here forever

So she's gonna get as many as she can

What can I do

Yes I just sing the blues

Well I just sing the blues

'Cause that's the only thing I know to do

Well some people may be wrong sometimes

But they can't be wrong all the time

Like they say a cat has nine lives

Nine loves has the woman of mine

What can I do

I just sing the blues

Well I just sing the blues

'Cause that's the only thing I know to do

Well the women are funny these days

They do wrong in so many ways

They'll have a man twiddling his fingers

Or either drinking his life away

What can I do

I just sing the blues

Well I just sing the blues

'Cause that's the only thing I know to do

Well some people may be wrong sometimes

But they can't be wrong all the time

Like they say a cat has nine lives

Nine loves has the woman of mine

What can I do

Yes I just sing the blues

Well I just sing the blues

'Cause that's the only thing I know to do
