[Verse 1]
I get the blues for my baby, ever since she been gone
Get the blues for my baby, ever since she been gone
Hell, I lost a good gal, and I grieve both night and day
[Verse 2]
I think about my baby ever since she been gone
I watch the sun when it rise, watch the sun when it fades away
Yes, I do
Watch the sun when it rise until it fades away
I been longin' for my baby ever since she been gone
[Verse 3]
Well, I lost a good gal, and I'm 'bout to lose my mind
Well, I lost a good gal, and I'm 'bout to lose my mind
I get the blues for my baby, every night and every day
I get the blues for my baby, ever since she been gone
Get the blues for my baby, ever since she been gone
Hell, I lost a good gal, and I grieve both night and day
[Verse 2]
I think about my baby ever since she been gone
I watch the sun when it rise, watch the sun when it fades away
Yes, I do
Watch the sun when it rise until it fades away
I been longin' for my baby ever since she been gone
[Verse 3]
Well, I lost a good gal, and I'm 'bout to lose my mind
Well, I lost a good gal, and I'm 'bout to lose my mind
I get the blues for my baby, every night and every day
