| You ain’t been blue, no, no, no | 
| You ain’t been blue 'til you’ve had that mood indigo | 
| That old funky feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes | 
| While I sit and sigh, «Go 'long blues» | 
| Always get that mood indigo | 
| Since my baby said goodbye | 
| In the evenin' when lights are down low | 
| I’m so lonesome I could cry | 
| Ain’t nobody cares about me | 
| I’m just a soul bluer than blue can be | 
| When I get that mood indigo | 
| I could lay me down and die | 
| I say you ain’t been blue, no, no, no | 
| You ain’t been blue 'til you’ve had the touch of that mood indigo | 
| That old feelin' sure goes stealin' down to my shoes | 
| While I sit and sigh, «Go 'long blues» | 
| Always get that mood indigo | 
| Since my baby said goodbye | 
| In the evenin' when lights are way down low | 
| I’m so lonesome I could cry | 
| Ain’t nobody cares about me | 
| I’m just a soul bluer than blue could ever be | 
| When I get that mood indigo | 
| I could lay me down and die | 
| Always get me that mood indigo | 
| Since my baby said goodbye | 
| In the evenin' when lights are down low | 
| I’m so lonesome I could cry | 
| Ain’t nobody cares about me | 
| I’m just a soul bluer than blue can be | 
| When I get that mood indigo | 
| I could lay me down and die |
