Melba's Blues

Miss Liston wrote her a melody, 'bout her life

She tried to accent the happiness, cool the strife

She told a real soulful story that never ends

About the hard time you have tryin' to find some good friends

And she called it Melba's Blues

Miss Liston wrote something pretty that's nice and sweet

So sweet you can't hardly dig that it's got a beat

She tries tell how a woman does all she can

About the hard time she has tryin' to find a good man

And she called it Melba's Blues

It's just a real pretty ballad that's nice to play

The kind of song when you hear it you gotta sway

She made so soft and gentle to please the ear

So people won't realize it's the blues that they hear

And she called it Melba's Blues

And she called it Melba's Blues
