As recorded by LEE MORSE, 16th January 1930:

What will I do at sundown
What will I do at dawn
What will I do at noontime
Now that I've found you gone

What will I do for sunshine
With nothin' but the rain
How can I smile, find life worthwhile
With a heart that's filled with pain

Oh my, how I miss your tender kiss
And the wonderful things you would do
I run my hands through silv'ry strands
'Cause I'm blue, turnin' grey over you

You used to be so good to me
That's when I was a novelty
Now you have new thrills in view, found someone new
Left me blue, turnin' grey over you

(Instrumental Break)

You used to be so good to me
That's when I was a novelty
Now you have new thrills in view, found someone new
And left me blue, turnin' grey over you
