Lyrics
Intro (Ala Billy Holiday)
Sometimes you treat me like you just don't care
You make me feel so low and then
Just when I feel like given' up on you
You start comin' round again
Verse I
And now my eyes want to cry
Tears that are dry
I've got to be strong
So the blues won't get me
Mustn't give in
Mustn't give in to the blues.
Verse II
My heart keeps achin' so bad
Feelin' so sad
I've gotta be strong so the blues won't get me
Mustn't give in
Mustn't give in to the blues
Bridge
I try to say to myself you're not for me
Why should I be your fool?
But then my heart seems to say
I want it that way
Even though you treat me so cruel
Verse III
I ask you why must love be such misery?
I've gotta be strong so the blues won't get me
Mustn't give in
Mustn't give in to the blues.
