[Intro]
Strollin'
While strollin' through the park
On a lovely but lonely afternoon
Without a single thing on my mind and suddenly
There he was standing right beside me
I started dreaming
He started scheming
Things I never thought he'd do
Now he tells me that we're through
I just don't know what to do
I'm all alone and oh so blue
[Chorus]
I'm strollin', I'm strollin'
I don't know where I'm goin' but I'm strollin'
I'm moanin', I'm moanin'
He left me for another and I'm moanin'
He said, "Honey, I'll never let you go
Because I love you so"
[Verse 1]
Hе promised that he'd care for mе
But all I saw was misery
I stayed at home each night alone
He ran around, painted the town
I've gone and let the blues get me down
That's why I'm strollin' round
[Chorus]
All he wanted was my money, it's funny
To think I'd live to see the day he'd shun me
He's away and I pray
Lord, please remove these clouds and make life sunny
Because I've got the blues, I can't lose
I just keep strollin' round
[Piano Solo]
[Verse 2]
He never took me to a show
That old routine, he had no dough
He'd stay home long enough to eat
Dress up, then go out in the street
You wondered why I feel the way I do
Well, that's why I'm so blue
[Chorus]
Yes, those blues they got me strollin' and sighin'
I'm talkin' to myself to keep from cryin'
All alone, he won't phone
I'm so darned miserable I feel like dyin'
Because I've got the blues, I'm so confused
I just keep strollin' round
[Post-Chorus]
Now he tells me that we're through
I just don't know what to do
I'm all alone and oh so blue
Now he tells me that we're through
I just don't know what to do
I'm all alone and oh so blue
[Outro]
I'm strollin', I'm strollin'
I don't know where I'm goin' but I'm strollin'
I'm strollin', I'm strollin'
I'm strollin'
