A Nightingale Can Sing The Blues

Larry Markes, Dick Charles

Ain't it a shame he had to go and grieve me
Some other dame has made him up and leave me
That's how it happens
A nightingale can sing the blues

I'll put it straight
He's got himself a new bird
Gave me the gate and now
I'm just a blue bird
That's how it happens
A nightingale can sing the blues

He can take me and forsake me
Just as quick as that
Where there's someone new in town
But I'm bettin' he'll be frettin'
For his old job back
When his brand new lady love has let him down

You take my word
There ain't no use of preachin'
I've got a bird who's
Gonna get some teachin'
Then he'll discover a nightingale
Can sing the blues

You take my word
There ain't no use of preachin'
I've got a bird who's
Gonna get some teachin'
Then he'll discover a nightingale
Can sing the blues
