Well, I brought some pretty roses and a bottle of wine
To have the table ready for my baby to dine
Even bought a candle stick for candlelight glow
And wrote a little note to tell her I love her so
But what can I do?
I wish that I knew
For baby hasn't coming
It's a quarter to two
That's why the blues I've got are the bluest
Yes the blues I've got, oh the bluest
I've got the bluest blues
Yes the blue, blue, bluest blues, blues
It used to be whenever we were having a date
She never never came as much as five minutes late
She always used to greet me with a kiss and a sigh
And everything was sweet until I kissed her goodbye
I wonder if she
Is tired of me
Or it is my imagination
Having a spree?
That's why the blues I've got are the bluest
Yes the blues I've got, oh the bluest
I've got the bluest blues
Yes the blue, blue bluest blues, blues
So now the leaking [?] seems to drip in the sink
And suddenly the radio is gone on the blink
It's seems to me that everything is falling apart
And though it isn't raining, there was rain in my heart
But just like a loon
That's watching the moon
I'm sitting hoping, waiting
That my baby comes soon
The Bluest Blues was written by Lucky Thompson & J. Leslie McFarland.
