Duke Ellington
Mood Indigo
[Verse 1]
You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't been blue 'til you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues"
[Verse 2]
Always get that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
In the evening when the lights are low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
[Verse 3]
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me
I'm just a soul who's bluer than blue can be
When I get that mood indigo
I could lay me down and die
[Verse 1]
You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't been blue 'til you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues"
