| I woke up this morning, I couldn’t hardly move
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| Doctor said that I should take a pill or two
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| When my baby left me, I thought that I would die
|
| But I didn’t
|
| Everybody told me, that I’d get over her
|
| But I didn’t
|
| I went to see a shrink, he said, lie here on this couch
|
| Let me see what I can do
|
| Several hours later, he said, there’s no hope for you
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| I call my best friend just to pass the time of day
|
| Cause I sure have got the blues
|
| But there I find my baby dressed in her négligée
|
| Now I’ve really got the blues
|
| When my baby left me, I thought that I would die
|
| But I didn’t
|
| Everybody told me, that I’d get over her
|
| But I didn’t
|
| I sit here all alone, but I know why I feel this way
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| I’ll get over her and I’ll be alright someday
|
| Cause it ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues
|
| It ain’t nothing but the blues |
