Ella Fitzgerald - Happy Blues songtekst

Je score:


We want to leave you happy

Don't want to leave you sad

We want to leave you happy

Don't want to leave you sad

Want to sing some blues

But don't want to sing them bad



Roy wailed for you

He wailed the blues tonight

Roy wailed for you

He wailed the blues tonight

He wailed, he wailed, he wailed 'em just right



He talked about a mean woman

Oh what a woman was she

Talked about a mean woman

What a woman was she

I've got my chance to talk about a man

I'll talk about he



He was good to me

He was good

He was good to me

Whoa, so good

I don't know much about the blues

But I know somewhere



There's a little bit of soul in Ella

There's a little bit of soul in me

There's a little bit of soul in Ella

There's a little bit of soul in me

Oh somewhere down the line

I've had misery



Every woman gets misery

Every woman is crying

Every woman has misery

Every woman is crying

Crying 'bout a man

And the way he did her wrong



I had one too

I had one too

I had one too

I had one too

He did me wrong, but what did I do

I picked up and took patoot



Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

I want to go out swinging

Swinging the blues tonight



Don't want to talk about Mack The Knife

Don't want to talk about the snuffing

Just want to have fun talking about

Things that make you happy

Snappy happy happy snappy, that's me



Joe Williams sang the blues tune

He talked about his woman

Joe Williams sang the blues tune

He talked about his woman

Everybody, everybody pays those dues



Have you paid your dues

Have you paid your dues

Have you paid your dues

Have you paid your dues

Everybody, somewhere along the line is paying some dues



Dues, one and two

Dues, doesn't matter nothing

Dues, three and four

Dues, maybe more, that's all right

You're still paying dues



So let's stay happy, happy, happy

Let's stay happy

Go swinging out, swinging out, swinging out

Singing the blues



Bye-bye

Bye-bye

It's been a wonderful night tonight

Yes, it's been nice

One more chorus, just for you



I thank you daddy, for coming out

I thank you people, for coming out

Cause somewhere along the line, everyone will want to shout



I want to shout

Shout about my troubles

I want to shout

Shout about my troubles

Like you I've paid the dues

And I've got double trouble



Come on, let's stay happy

Come on, clap, let's stay happy

Let's sing the happy blues

No more sad dues





I am happy you are happy too

I am happy you are happy too

So let's go out with the blues that's swinging



Like Count Basie, swing on

Like Count Basie, swing on

Like Count Basie, swing on

Like Count Basie, swing on

Swing on, swing out tonight



Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Right on now, with that soul



C'mon everybody

C'mon and say right on

I said right on

I said right on

Right on

Right on

Right on

Right on

Right on



Get with it, yeah

Get with it, yeah

Get with it, yeah

Get with it, yeah

Get with it

Get with it

Get with it, c'mon



Let's make you happy

Happy

I've sung these blues, and I'm through

Cause I don't know what I'm singing about

I don't know what I'm singing about

With this happy music

This happy music



So I'd better leave while I'm happy

And say good night to you

Goodnight

Goodnight

Goodnight

Goodnight

Goodnight
