Play the Blues - Joan Armatrading

Blue hat

Checked shirt

Pimple on your cheek

Ears like handle bars

Teeth yellow

Like the sun

Gravelled voice like a beaten path

But baby when you sing the blues

I’d take off all my clothes for you

Baby when you sing the blues

I’d take off all my clothes for you

Wake up

Every day

Turn my face

To feel the morning breeze

At night

When we meet

You’re brighter than a constellation of stars

Baby when you sing the blues

I’d take all my clothes off for you

Baby when you sing the blues

I’d take all my clothes off for you

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

As long as baby don’t leave

I’m happy every day

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

As long as baby don’t leave

I’m happy every day

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

Got a feeling that my cares gonna walk away

As long as baby don’t leave

I’m happy every day
