"Thank God For The Blues" lyrics

"Thank God For The Blues"

Sing it for me, sing it for you
Sing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do
Thank God, thank God for the blues
Singing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do

Singing what's real, singing what's true
Singing that's what I'm here to do
I was born, born to sing the blues
Sing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do

There's inspiration, there's meditation too
There's inspiration coming through
Singing it for the people
Who feel the same way that I do
Way out is the way through
Thank God for the blues

Yeah, yeah
Thank God for the blues
Yeah, yeah
Thank God for the blues
Mamma had 'em, Papa had 'em too
Thank God for the blues

There's inspiration, there's meditation too
There's information 'bout a certain point of view
The way out, the way out
The way out is always the way through
Mamma had 'em, Papa had 'em too
Thank God for the blues

Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Mamma had 'em, Pappa had 'em too
I was born to sing the blues

I'm singing what's real
Singing what's true
I'm singing 'cause that's what I'm here to do
I was born, born to sing the blues
Mamma had 'em, Papa had 'em too
Thank God for the blues

Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Singing's what I'm here to do, here to do
Thank God for the blues

Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Hey hey hey
Thank God for the blues
Singing for the people who feel the same way that I do
Thank God for the blues
