You ain't been blue; no, no, no.

You ain't been blue,

Till you've had that mood indigo.

That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes

While I sit and sigh, "go 'long blues".

Always get that mood indigo,

Since my baby said goodbye.

In the evenin' when lights are low,

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

'cause there's nobody who cares about me,

I'm just as bluer as blue could be.

Always get that mood indigo,

Since my baby said goodbye.

Blues on my mind

Blues all around my head

Blues on my mind

Blues all around my head

Woke up this morning but I'll be better off a day

You ain't been blue; no, no, no.

You ain't been blue,

Till you've had that mood indigo.

That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes

While I sit and sigh, "go 'long blues".

Blues on my mind

Blues all around my head

Blues on my mind

Blues all around my head

Woke up this morning but I'll be better off a day
