There are blues that you get from worry
There are blues that you get from pain
And there are blues when you're lonely
For your one and only
The blues you can never explain

There are blues that you get from longing
But the blue-est blues to me
Are the only blues that's on my mind 
They're the very meanest kind
The blues my naughty sweetie gives to me

There are blues that you get when single
There are blues that drive you insane
There are blues when you're lonely
For your one and only
The blues you can never explain

There are blues that you get from longing
But the blue-est blues that be
Are the sort of blues that's on my mind 
They're the very meanest kind
The blues my naughty sweetie gives to me

And you've got blues without a nickel
Then you're in a pickle
Forced to stay at home
Blues about your honey 
Spendin' all your money
Blues if your baby starts to roam
Blues when your mother's on the phone! 0
Blues when you won't leave a-lone! 
Blues when I'm mad!
Blues when I'm sad! 

These kinds of blues will ruin my life 
'Till the day we're man and wife
The blues my naughty sweetie gives to me! 
We've got 'em bad!
