You ain't been blue; no, no, no.
  You ain't been blue,
  Till you've had that mood indigo.
  That 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 low,
  I'm so lonesome I could cry.
  
  'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
  I'm just a soul who's
  bluer than blue can be.
  When I get that mood indigo,
  I could lay me down and die.
