Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You ain't never been blue
No, no no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long, blues!"
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
You ain't never been blue
No, no no, no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long, blues!"
