James Taylor
Everybody Has the Blues
[Intro: Tony Bennett & Ray Charles]
Hey, Ray (Mm?), I feel so sad
I guess you're thinkin' no one ever felt so bad before
Well now, wait a moment now, Tony, ah
Join the club, ah, ah, I must tell you a little somethin' here

[Chorus: Ray Charles & Tony Bennett]
Everybody gets the blues
Now I know you didn't know this, that's why I'm tellin' ya
Everybody has the blues, mhm
Everybody knows the way you feel today, ah
And I thought it was just me, no, uh-uh

[Verse 1: Tony Bennett & Ray Charles]
You mean, everybody gets to sit and cry? I mean just that
Everybody gets to wonder why? Mhm
Everybody gets to watch the sky turn gray
Heh, and guess what, ah, ah, this may be a bit surprisin' to you

[Verse 2: Ray Charles, Tony Bennett & Both]
Some people lose their jobs, wow
And, uh, some fellas lose their girl, fellas watchin'
Maybe we feel like we're losing our minds
That's not the end of the world, hey

[Verse 3: Ray Charles, Tony Bennett & Both]
Everybody gets to feel some pain, tell them the way it is, Ray
Mhm, everyone got to get caught out in the rain, it's the truth, you're not alone
Everybody has got some days that they can't explain
[Bridge: Tony Bennett & Ray Charles]
Play the blues, Ray
Alright, here I come
Uh-huh, woo, mhm, walk it, walk it
That's it, let me hear that one more time, Ray
Woo
Oh, thank you, haha, ha
Ah, summit

[Outro: Ray Charles, Tony Bennett & Both]
On Dallas, even JR gets the blues, Ray
Are you kiddin'? Ah, well, listen to this
Politicians get the blues, especially when they lose, haha
Uh, TV anchor people, ah, they-they get the blues, just from readin' all that news
That's everybody, everybody has the blues
