Other people
Concept: Carol Cayley. Lyrics: Rob Walker © positivespin 2002

(Mum. Dad. Sister. Brother. Friends.
Grandma. Grandpa. Auntie.
Uncle. Neighbour. Teacher. Counsellor.)

Blues. Got the blues

If you're down
And feelin' blue
There is something
That you can do

You can talk
Share your feelings too
You can listen
And change the view

If you think your life is stressful
When there's a problem you can't solve
You can share your secret feelings
And the sadness will dissolve

You can Talk (to beat the blues)
Listen (to beat the blues)
Share your feelings (to beat the blues)
Yeah! (yeah!)
And beat the blues

(Counsellor. Coach. Cousin. Boyfriend.
Girlfriend. Mum.)

If your friend is out of town
And you're feeling sad and down
There are other people who
Can help to get you through (10X)
To beat the blues

(Dad. Sister. Brother. Friends. Grandma)

You can talk
Share your feelings too
You can listen
And change the view

If you think your life is stressful
When there's a problem you can't solve
You can share your secret feelings
And the sadness will dissolve

You can Talk (to beat the blues)
Listen (to beat the blues)
Share your feelings (to beat the blues)
Yeah! (yeah!)

There are other people who
Can help to get you through (5X)
Beat the Blues.

(Sister. Brother. Friend. Grandma. Grandpa. Auntie)
If you're down And feelin' blue
There is something...
