I got the blues
A sickness much too bad to cure with booze
And so I'll open up my heart that you may look
And love or weep as you choose
Blues go away
Bad news every day
When the sun is shining
It is only just reminding me
The rains came yesterday
And I'm on my way
Till the storm of sadness
Much too black and blue
For sun to shine away
So when the birds sing
I only sigh
And when the winds wail
I want to cry
Oh blues go away
Bad news here to stay
In the black and blue of night
I cry and hope I'll never face the day
