I could have been a gambler
'coz i'm good with the cards
I could have been a lover
Breakin' other's hearts
And i feel so silly
Bettin' on the dice
And a lover seldom sees
The same girl twice

And that is why (that is why)
That's why i chose (that's why i chose)
I chose to sing the blues yes i did

Now i could have been a doctor
Helping the sick
And i could have been a lawyer
But you know that ain't my stick
'coz i feel so bad
If a patient didn't do well
And i feel just as bad
To leave a client in jail

And that is why (that is why)
That's why i chose (that's why i chose)
I chose to sing the blues

(sax solo)

Now a man has a lot
That he could present
Just to think i could have been
President
But i can't understand
What politicians say
So i wanna talk to you
In my own little way

And that is why (that is why)
That's why i chose (that's why i chose)
I chose to sing the blues

Yes i did friends
Don't you know what i mean
I like what i'm doin'
You know i like the blues
Everybody understands
What i mean when i say
Something like this here
Unnnnnnn-hoo
Yeah
Yeah-hoo
That's what i'm talkin' 'bout when i sing
{fade}
