We Can’t Sing Rhythm and Blues Lyrics by Patience & Prudence

Your Careless Love

1956

[Verse 1]
We can sing a melody that′s pretty
Or a line of Hammerstein that's witty
But here′s the sad, sad news
We can't sing rhythm and blues
When we hear a rock n' rollin′ rhythm
We would like to rock and roll it with ′em
We're wearing blue suede shoes
But can′t sing rhythm and blues
[Verse 2]
The moan and groan of a tenor saxophone is grand
Really grand
And when the man who plays piano takes command
How we love the repetition of a rockin' composition
But, we are up a tree and can′t ignore it
You see, we haven't got the voices for it
It′s awful sad, sad, news
We can't sing rhythm and blues
Mighty sad, sad, news
We can't sing rhythm and blues
