"Singing the Blues" is a popular song composed by Melvin Endsley and published in 1956.

The song was first recorded by Marty Robbins.

The best-known recording was released in October 1956 by Guy Mitchell and spent ten weeks at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard chart from 8 December 1956, to 2 February 1957.

The Marty Robbins version made it to number one on the Billboard C&W Best Sellers chart for 13 weeks in late 1956 and early 1957 and peaked at number seventeen on the US pop chart.

I used to sit in with a band called Alias Smith and Jones. They were in Wichita Falls, TX, and owned a bar right outside of the front gate of Sheppard AFB, when I was stationed there.

Singing The Blues was the first song I sang with them.
