I worry all day, I worry all night
Every time my gal come home, she wanna fuss and fight
When I pick up the paper to read the news
Just when I'm satisfied, yonder come the blues
I went down to the river each and every day
Tryna keep from cryin' and give myself away
I walked, and I walked 'til I wore out my shoes
I can't walk, no further, yonder come the blues
Folks have different blues, they think they're mighty sad
But the blues about a woman, the worst I've ever had
I've been disgusted and all confused
Every time I look around, yonder come the blues
Go back, blues, don't come this way
Lordy, give me somethin' else besides the blues always
Every gal I loved, I've been refused
Oh, my baby, yonder come the blues
