Singing the Blues
Echoes of Heartache: Black Oak Arkansas Sings the Melancholy Tale
Lyrics
I never felt more like singin' the blues
I am currently experiencing a deep emotional sadness.
'Cause I never thought that I'd ever lose
I never expected to face a situation where I would lose.
Your lovin'

Ya got me singin' the blues

I never felt more like cryin' all night
My emotional pain is so intense that I feel like crying throughout the night.
When every things wrong

And nothin' is right without you
