Am I Blue?

I'm just a woman, a lonely woman Waiting on the weary shore I'm just a woman that's only human One you should be sorry for Woke up this mornin', alone about dawn Without a warnin', I found he was gone How could he do it? Why should he do it? He never done it before Am I blue? Am I blue? Ain't these tears in these eyes tellin' you? Am I blue? Why, you'd be too If each plan with your man done fell through There was a time when I was his only one But now I'm the sad and lonely one, laddy Was I gay until today? Now he's gone, and we're through Am I blue? I know it, he's in Chicago! And I'm down here in Birmingham Tryin' to get the money to go and find my honey I am, yes indeed I am! I've got the blues in my heart, and my shoes wanna start Yet, I'm in a jam, a terrible jam Oh, don't ask me am I blue Why do you ask me am I blue? Ain't these tears in these eyes tellin' you? Again you ask me am I blue Why, wouldn't you be too? If each plan with your man had done fell through Don't I remember the time When I was his only one But look at me now, I'm the sad and lonely one Oh, didn't I use to be gay? Oh, 'til today God I miss you! Lord, am I blue!
