Lyrics

You ain't been blue
No, no, no, no, no
Well, you ain't been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo
That feeling comes stealing
Way down to your shoes
While I sit and I cry
Go away, blues
Get that mood indigo
Since my baby left this time
And in the evening
In the evening when the lights are low
I get so lonely I could die
'Cause I ain't got nobody who cares about me
I'm blue, blue, blue as any gal can be
And I sit and I cry
Go away, blues
That feeling comes on stealing
Way down, way down to your shoes
I sit and I cry
Go along, blues
Written by: Duke Ellington
