Lyrics

You ain't never been blue, no, no, no, child You ain't never been blue 'Til you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues I always get that mood indigo Since my baby said goodbye And in the evening when the lights are low I'm so lonely, I could cry For there's nobody who cares about me I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be When I get that mood indigo I could lay me down and die You ain't been blue, no, no, no, child You ain't never been blue 'Til you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues
