I Wrote a Letter

I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote, it’s hard what I gotta say
I’m down and out to tell you the truth
a man can make a white girl sing the blues
You know why I coulndn’t be with you
when there’s a change please give me a cue
until I drown in too much of booze
a man can make a white girl sing the blues
I took my pride and threw it away
you got to release me from my suffering
you find me everywhere running around
soon you sure will find me in the gutter
I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote, it’s so hard what I’ve gotta say
all my life is turning out loose
a man can make a white girl sing the blues
I took my pride and I threw it away…
I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote, it’s so hard what I’ve gotta say
I’m down and out to tell you the truth
all my life is turning out loose
When there’s a change please give me a cue
'cause you know why I couldn’t be with you
until I drown in too much of booze
a man can make a white girl sing the blues
