Well these ol’ blues they’ve got me down
Since my sweet thing she ain’t around
I’m as blue as I can be
Just as blue as the deep blue sea

Got up this morning, feeling so blue
Didn’t sleep all night, thinking of you
Tossed and turned, tears in my eyes
Wondering why you said goodbye

Oh now she’s gone, what will I do?
It’s too late to start anew
For a true love is hard to find
It’s too late to turn back the time
