Without a word of warning
Blues walked in this morning
And circled 'round my lonely room

I didn't know why I had that sad and lonely feeling
Until my baby called and said we were through
For yesterday this time I sang a love song
But today I'm singing the blues

Strikes me kinda funny
How love can be this way
We were loving 'til last night, honey, yeah
I'm alone again today

And it strikes me kinda funny
How fate can be unfair
That I come right on the losing end
In every, every love affair

Yes it must be, it must be meant for me
That i should be the one, be the one to always lose

For yesterday!
Yesterday this time I'd sing a love song
Whoa, yeah, but right now I'm singing the blues
Who-o-oh yea
