Abbey Lincoln - I Could Sing It For A Song Lyrics

[Intro]
When the life you live is crazy
In the circus you're the clown
And the funny house of mirrors
Tears you up, brings you down
Tell it to the moon
Pray it won't be long
Nothing is forever
You can sing it for a song

[Verse 1]
I could write a song about the life I live
In a world of trouble, lot of take and give
Now and then a lesson
There will be a test
Hoping when the wagon comes
I'll be at my best

[Verse 2]
I could write a song about the things I see
Wonder where it's going like a ship at sea
Rockin' and a-rollin'
And it's stormy weather
I could write it for a song
We could sing it all together
[Piano Solo]

[Tenor Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
I could write a song about the way I feel
Well, it wasn't easy and I got a dirty deal
Broken shoes for walkin'
Wings that never fit
I could write it for a song
And it would be a hit

[Outro]
I could write it for a story and tell you what it is
I could tell it for a story
Sing a song
