[Verse 1]
Blues stay away from me
Uh-uh-uh, blues why don't you let me be
I don't know why you keep a-hauntin' me

[Verse 2]
True love was never meant for me
True love was never meant for me
It seems somehow we never can agree

[Verse 3]
My life is full of misery
And dreams are like a memory
They're bringing back your love that used to be

[Verse 4]
I got teardrops so many I can't see
And years don't mean a thing to me
But time goes by and still I can't be free

[Verse 1]
Uh-uh-uh, blues stay away from me
You hear me, blues why don't you let me be
I don't know why you keep a-haunting me

[Outro]
No, I don't know why you keep a-haunting me
Oh, I don't know why you keep a-haunting me
