| You ain’t never been blue, no, no, no child |
| You ain’t never been blue |
| Till you’ve had that mood indigo |
| That feeling goes stealing, right down to my shoes |
| While I just sit here and sigh, go along blues |
| 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 |
| You ain’t been blue, no, no, no child |
| You ain’t never been blue |
| Till you’ve had that mood indigo |
| That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes |
| While I just sit here and sigh, go along blues |
