I'd rather be blue over you 

Than be happy with somebody else 

I'm crazy about'cha, without'cha 

For you I'm strong. 

I can't do without'cha 

Howcha magoucha? 

Don't stay too long. 

I need a little ah, little ooh, little oh, 

And I'm knocking on wood. 

Ah, honey hurry up, hurry up, hurry up 

It's so hard to be good 



I'd rather be blue thinking of you 

I'd rather be blue over you 

Than be happy with somebody else 

Will I be good? Will I be bad? 

Don't be a fool, you fool. 

My little flat, I'm turning that 

Into a Sunday school 

While you're away, I'm here to say 

There'll be no iceman there. 

Singin' the blues I'm gonna use 

Nothin' but Frigidaire. 

I'd rather be blue thinking of you 

I'd rather be blue over you 

Than be happy with somebody else 

Blue over you, I'd rather be blue over you 

Than be hap-hap-hap-happy 

With somebody else.
