Duke Ellington
Mood Indigo
[Chorus]
You ain't been blue; no, no, no
You ain't been blue
'Til you've had that mood indigo
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues"
[Verse 1]
I can't get out of that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
And in the evening when the lights are low
I get so lonesome I, I could cry, cry, cry
Nobody cares about me
I'm just as lonesome as a man can be
I just can't get out of that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
I can't get out of that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
On the evening when the lights are low
I get so lonesome I could die, die, die
Nobody cares about me
I'm just as lonesome as a man can be
I can't get out of that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
[Chorus]
You ain't been blue; no, no, no
You ain't been blue
'Til you've had that mood indigo
That feelin' goes right on stealin' down to my shoes
While I sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues"
