You ain't been blue,
No, no, no . . .
You ain't been blue,
'till you had that mood indigo . . .
That feelin' goes stealin'
Down to my shoes,
While i sit an' sigh,
Go 'long blues . . .
Always get the mood indigo,
Since my baby said goodbye . . .
In the evenin' when the lights are low,
I'm so lonesome, i could die!
'cause there's nobody,
Who cares about me . . .
I'm just a fool,
Who's bluer than blue can be,
When i get that mood indigo,
I could lay me down an' die!
That feelin' goes stealin'
Down to my shoes,
While i sit an' sigh,
Go 'long blues . . .
