Well there are blues that you get from worryin’
There are blues that you get from pain
There are blues when you’re lonely
For your one and only
Blues you never can explain
Oh, blues, blues, blues that you get from longing
But the bluest blues that be
Are the sort of blues that’s on my mind
They’re the very meanest kind
Blues my naughtie sweetie gives to me.


(Musical break)


Blues that you get from longing
Longing to hold someone on your knee
But the kind of blues that always stab
On some hirin’ taxi cab
Blues my naughtie sweetie gives to me
Blues my naughtie sweetie gives to me
