You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't been blue 'til you've had that mood indigo
That feelin' goes stealin' down, down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "So long, blues"
I always get that mood indigo
Since my baby said, "Good-bye"
And in the eve-nin', when lights are low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me
I'm just as blue as blue can be
I always get that mood indigo
I could lay me down and die
You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't been blue 'til you've had that mood indigo
That feelin' goes stealin' down, down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "So long, blues"
