Just Let Me Sing
(B. Cummings)
Parking' cars, sleazy bars
Workin' on my next hot meal
Sudden chance, career romance
Changin' all the things that I'd feel
Wondering' as I'm walkin' if my choice was wrong
All the vows I had were gone
And there's one small favour I'll ask
Before you ramble on
Let me sing a tune if you come around to see me
Let me sing a song if you stop by to say hello
Baby let me croon a tune if you come around to see me
'Cause I never get a chance to sing the blues much anymore
Lost my Jew, things got blue
The kid was sinkin' first and fast
Empty bed, lies in my head
Comes from livin' deep in the past
Wonderin' as I'm lovin' if my choice was wrong
All the vows I had were still gone
And there's one small favour
I'd like to ask before you're gone
Just let me sing
