============================================================
I'm not gonna sing the blues
'cause I don't wanna cry
I only wanna be as free as the skies
Don't let anyone bring you down
Say what you wanna say
but I've got it right
And I aim to feel this good the rest of my life
Can't let anyone bring me down
Hey, look at me
I want everyone to see
How happy our lives could be
How happy we could be
That's what I'm doin' here
Singin' my song
I just wanna make you see what you knew all along
Don't let anyone bring you down
Hey, look at me
I want everyone to see
How happy our lives could be
How happy we could be
I'm not gonna sing the blues
'cause I don't wanna cry
I only wanna be as free as the skies
can't let anyone bring you down
I hope I made you feel good
I hope I made you feel good
I hope I made you feel real good
I hope I made you feel G O O D

when I get sad or mad I listen to this song still to this day and it make me feel better, I just love minnie from the first day I heard her back when I was 15 years old, and now I am 56 and will listen to Ms minnie til the day I leave this earth, but I hope if I make it to heaven I can meet her and tell her how much love and respect I have for her and her music, R.I.P. MS MINNIE, you are a perfect angel
i really fell in love with this song. especially the ending. it's so sweet 💙
I was so proud to accompany one my High School seniors while she sang this so perfectly at our spring assembly and graduation. The student were stunned, but very gracious in their applause!
I listen to this when fell I can't take the drama of life. I don't let it get me down. Thank you Minnie
Same. The lyrics do get me teary-eyed, tho. Hope your day is going drama-free. Stay safe.

Minnie, you're still an incredible force after all this time. I enjoy my faves by you but I also love discovering songs I have overlooked by you - this being on of them. I'm kinda sad so this was perfect. Thank you eternally Minnie.
this is a great song along with a beautiful video. thank you
Beautiful
She wrote this tune after hearing her cancer was too far gone and she had a few months to love and live. Miss you, Minnie.
Thanks, for that research.She was
our Perfect Angle I wonder if she
knew something for awhile but,didn't
want to stop working and singing
She was so happy being a mother
and wife. LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE
FULLEST! FAMILY MATTERS PEOPLE

I am sorry, Kevin, but I think you were misinformed. This song was released on her album Adventues in Paradise, in 1975.
Minnie was diagnised with cancer a year later, so the song happened some time, at least a year, prior. However, it, doubtlessly, is one beautiful and uplifting song.
I was told she knew from 1973. My mistake.
No one ever will
