Since I was a little child, I've always felt I don't belong
Everything I try to do, always seem to turn out wrong
And it seems like, like I was born to lose
That's why I'm gonna keep on singing the blues
I ain't got nobody in this world to call my own
I spend my nights crying, crying all alone
I wanna tell you people, I wanna tell you all the truth
I'm gonna keep on singing the blues
There's only one thing that I want
There's only one thing that I need
Someone to love me, someone to take care of me
But it seems like no matter how hard I try
I'll never have you, have you by my side
One of these days, I'm gonna wake up
You know that I'll be old and grey
And maybe by then things will start to go my way
But I know what I was put on this earth to do
That's why I'm gonna keep on singing the blues
