Blues Blues - Bessie Smith Charlie Green Clarence Williams Floyd Casey Louis Metcalfe

Blue blue I got a tale to tell you I'm blue

Something comes over me daddy

And I'm blue about you

Listen to my story and everything I'll come out true

When your man is gone your rent is all due

He's not coming back you know he's all thru

You weep and cry feel like you could die

If you was a bird you'd take wings and fly

There is one thing that'll make you blue blue

When you ain't got a daddy to tell your troubles to

Step right out and sing start right in to wing

Keep feelin' in your heart you start right in to drink

If you've ever been blue you know a woman feels

If you've ever been blue you know a good woman feels

You're a worried child honey yes indeed

Blue blue I got a tale to tell you I was blue

Something fell on me daddy I was blue over you

You done listen to my story and everything come out true
