[Verse 1]
Well, it's hard to be a gambler
Bettin' on the number
That changes every time
When you think you're gonna win
Think she's givin' in
A stranger's all you find
Yeah, it's hard to figure out
What she's all about
But she's woman through and through
She's a complicated lady
So color my baby moody blue

[Chorus]
Oh, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through?
I keep hangin' on
Tryin' to learn your song
But I never do
Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you

[Verse 2]
Well, when Monday comes she's Tuesday
When Tuesday comes she's Wednesday
Into another day again
Her personality unwinds
Just like a ball of twine
On a spool that never ends
Just when I think I know her well
Her emotions reveal
She's not the person that I thought I knew
She's a complicated lady
So color my baby moody blue
[Chorus]
Oh, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through?
I keep hangin' on
Tryin' to learn your song
But I never do
Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I'm afraid for my moody blue

[Outro]
Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you
Yeah, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through?
I keep hangin' on
Tryin' to learn your song
But I never do
Hear me now, you're moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you
Yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through?
I keep hangin' on
Tryin' to learn your song
But I never do
Yeah, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you
Yeah, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through?
I keep hangin' on
Tryin' to learn your song
But I never do
Every night you're my moody blue
Tell me who I'm talking to
You're like night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you
Yeah, moody blue
