Fergus Sings The Blues Lyrics - Singles - Deacon Blue

Fergus sings the blues 

In bars of twelve or less 

I'm a stranger 

To the land 

To this wilderness 

All 

Things are possible 

But happen less and less 

This 

Is my country 

These 

Are my reasons 

Cause I look 

In the mirror 

And it throws 

Back the question 

And I whisper in words 

That beg 

An answer 

Tell me 

Can 

This white man sing the blues 

Home 

Sick James 

My biggest 

Influence 

Tell 

Me why 

James and Bobby Purify 

I'm lost 

In music 

Sweet 

Soul music 

This 

Is my country 

These 

Are my reasons 

Cause I look 

In the mirror 

And it throws 

Back the question 

And I whisper in words 

That beg 

An answer 

Yes I look 

In the mirror 

And it throws 

Back the question 

And I whisper in words 

That beg 

An answer 

Tell me 

Can 

This white man sing the blues 

From the north coast 

To the uplands 

Stay on the left side of the white lines 

From the Campsies 

Over Christmas 

I still dream of Memphis 

Cause I look 

In the mirror 

And it throws 

Back the question 

And I whisper in words 

That beg 

An answer 

I got the blue blue world 

And I see 

The blue blue sky 

I got 

I got the blue blue ocean 

In 

My blue eye 

So tell me 

Can 

This white man sing the blues
