You Ain't Had the Blues
Embrace the Blues: Unveiling the Depths of Heartache in Nancy Wilson's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
If you haven't ever been lonely and
If you haven't ever experienced loneliness
You need your man only
And you rely solely on your man
Then, sister, you ain't had the blues
Then, sister, you haven't truly felt the blues
If he don't stay all night
If he doesn't stay with you all night
And tell you you ain't right
And doesn't acknowledge your feelings
Then, sister, you ain't had the blues
Then, sister, you haven't experienced the blues
And you can take it from me, baby
And you can trust my words, baby
You ain't had the blues
You haven't truly felt the blues
If you can stay in your right
If you can maintain composure
Mind when he's treated you unkind
When he treats you unkindly
Then, sister, you ain't had the blues
Then, sister, you haven't truly felt the blues
If you can go to sleep at night
If you can sleep at night peacefully
And your appetite's alright
And your appetite remains normal
Then, sister, you ain't had the blues
Then, sister, you haven't experienced the blues
Well, you can take it from me, baby
Well, you can trust my words, baby
You ain't had the blues
You haven't truly felt the blues
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
Not 'til he hurts you
Not until he causes you pain
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
'til he deserts you
Until he abandons you
Until your mind has been confused
Until your mind is in turmoil
You ain't had the blues
You haven't truly felt the blues
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
Not 'til he grieves you
Not until he causes you grief
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
Not 'til he leaves you
Not until he leaves you
Until you know you've been misused
Until you realize you've been mistreated
You ain't never had the blues
You haven't truly felt the blues
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
Not 'til your hurting
Not until you're in pain
You ain't had the blues
You haven't felt the blues
'til he's out flirting
Until he's out flirting with others
Until you know you've been abused
Until you realize you've been abused
You ain't never had the blues
You haven't truly felt the blues
