You ain't never been blue; no, no, no, You ain't never been blue, Till you've had that mood indigo. That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues". I always get that mood indigo, Since my baby said goodbye.

Shame on you Seducing everyone Your diamond in the rough You don't have to tell me I know where you've been Shinning once again Will you do The thing you've always done

And try to find the sunny side of life A heart full of joy and gladness Will always banish sadness and strife So always look for the silver lining Look for the silver lining Whenever a cloud appears in the blue Remember somewhere the sun is shining And

It seems like dreams I've always have Could be, should be making me glad But why am I blue? It's up to you to explain I'm thinking maybe, baby, I'll go away Someday, someway you'll come and say It's you that I need Maybe you'll be pleading in vain It had

Then we'd travel far to some big shining star Just you and my guitar And stay there sweetheart for always I lose my blues Only when I'm with you No one else can do You're in my heart to stay And when I'm gone and I'm all alone I'll be singing this song

Shape by the clearest blue Like it always was Just another time we're caught inside Every open eye Holding on tightly to the sides Never quite learning why Whenever I feel it coming on You can be well aware If ever I try to push you away

The winos bummin', the rich folks slummin' Jacksboro Highway, Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway, there's always something goin' down Just outside of Fort Worth, Texas, one ninety-nine There's a rundown strip of night clubs, been there for a long, long

Maybe ain't no use in sayin' what I want it to be Maybe ain't no use in playin' a tune Maybe ain't no use in singin' my blues But there's always a use in you and me Maybe ain't no use in watchin' through the window As the towns and our lives roll on by

But why did it have to be me? It's only natural That's only natural I was so lonesome, I was blue I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I Always thought you knew the reason why I only wanted a little love affair Now I can see you are beginning to care

No one will remember 'Cause nothing lasts forever No one cares about the waves At the bottom of the ocean And at the bottom of the ocean It's always blue And everybody's looking For somebody to use And it's always blue
