Some blues are just blues, mine are the lonesome blues

Some blues are just blues, mine are the lonesome blues

All the birds flew south for the winter

Left me these lonesome blues


My baby left me, hitched a train down south

My baby left me, hitched a train down south

I still taste his kisses

Like candy in my mouth.


I wish I had wings, just like an aeroplane

I wish I had wings, just like an aeroplane

Fly down, find my baby. never be lonesome again.
