Some people say that The song I sing aren't the blues Maybe what they say What they say just might be true Oh let me tell you This is the way I really feel And everything I do It's not fake, its really real And I'm not ashamed to sing the blues I'm not ashamed to sing the blues Some people say That the blues are really dumb They just don't know They don't know where I'm coming from And I just wanna tell you It's the way I feel inside Love and happiness Will put tears in your eyes And I'm not ashamed to sing the blues I'm not ashamed to sing the blues Some people say That my song are just too sad I don't think so When I think about the fun I had Living and loving Hating and cheating The laughing and cryin' Even at the greving And I'm not ashamed to sing the blues I wanna say it again I'm not ashamed to sing the blues
