The Girl Who Sang The Blues

Mann-Weil

The band and I, we played from nine to five
It didn't pay much 'cause the place was just a dive
But then one night I saw her in the crowd
She asked if singing with the band would be allowed
It was just a week day night
So I said it would be all right
That's how I met the girl who sang the blues

She sang the blues like no-one has ever heard
And you could tell that she'd lived every word
The girl was something special, we could see
She sang her song of love and she looked at me
The girl could do no worng
So we let her sing all night long
That's how I met the girl who sang the blues

I still remember that fateful night
The man with the big cigar
He walked in the club right up to her, he said
"Hey girl - my name's Brian Epstein!"

The band and I still play from nine to five
Since that night, the music came alive
The girl still sings her songs to me, I know
But now she's singing 'em on the radio
It hurst to realize I'm just one of a million guys
In love with the girl, the girl who sang the blues
