Harold Arlen Follow

I gotta right to feel low down
I gotta right to hang around
Down around the river

A certain man in this old town
Keeps draggin' my poor 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 sing and cry
Down around the river

I know, I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin', callin' me
It must, it must be love, say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues

All I see, for me
All I see, for me is misery
And misery, misery

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta right to sing and sigh
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

It must be love, say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues
All I see, for me is nothing but plain misery
I gotta right to sing the blues

I gotta right, I gotta right
I gotta right, I gotta right
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to sing the blues

I gotta right to feel low down
I gotta right to hang around
