Lyrics
YOU TAUGHT ME TO SING THE BLUES
I'm no millionaire, but I've got money to spare,
And I owe it all to you,
It wasn't my choice, you put the cry in my voice,
When you taught me, to sing the blues,
(chorus)
I chased you, you caught me,
Tooth and nail you fought me,
That's the way you taught me,
To sing the blues,
You gave me my start, when you broke my heart,
Thanks for all the abuse,
You didn't plan to hurt me, you like to play dirty,
That's how you taught me, to sing the blues,
(bridge)
I'm prince of nightlife,
Since you put my name up in lights,
I owe it all to you,
You're one who taught me, to sing the blues,
What ever your aim was, you made me famous,
Now I'm front page news,
Why should I complain, I'm drinking champagne,
Since you taught me, to sing the blues,
( chorus)
I chased you, you caught me,
Tooth and nail you fought me,
That's the way you taught me,
To sing the blues,
(repeat Chorus)

(optional verse)
I would rather take a beating, Then see you out cheating,
Honey, come back where you belong,
If we gotta fuss and fight, let's do it right,
I need material for another song,
