Lady sing the blues so well
As if she mean it
As if it's hell down here
In the smoke-filled world
Where the jokes are cold
They don't laugh at jokes
They laugh at tragedies
Corner street societies
But they believe her
They never leave her
While she sings she make them feel things
She says, I can sing this song so blue
That you will cry in spite of you
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder...
And I have walked these streets so long
There ain't nothing right, there ain't nothing wrong
But the little wet tears on my baby's shoulder...
Lady lights a cigarette
Puffs away, no regret
Takes a look around, no regrets, no regrets
Stretches out like branches of a poplar tree
She says, I'm free
Sings so soft as if she'll break, says
I can sing this song so blue
That you will cry in spite of you
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder...
I have walked these streets so long
There ain't nothing right, nothing wrong
But the little wet tears on my baby's shoulder...
But on this stage
I've learned to fly
Learned to sing
And learned to cry
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder...
But now it's time
To say goodbye
Some might laugh
But I will surely cry
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder...
The little wet tears on my baby's shoulder...
Lady lights a cigarette
Puffs away, and winter comes
And she forgets
