Till the tick tick tock of your mantle clock Sounds like a jungle drum You've never been blue, I don't mind tellin' you When the wear and tear on your rocking chair Is as plain as an old sore thumb You say I gotta right to scream out in the night Breeze, stop moaning those weird melodies My man has left me and I can't face the music Without singin' the blues Rain, your rhythm on my window pane Drives me insane because I can't face the music Without singin' the blues My heart is so broken I've spoken To the Lord for sympathy And if He don't help me, so help me It's the bottom of the deep blue sea for me I'm gonna end this misery My man has left me and I can't face the music Without singing the blues My heart is so broken I've spoken To the Lord for sympathy And if He don't help me, so help me It's the bottom of the deep blue sea for me I'm gonna end this misery My man has left me and I can't face the music Without singing the blues Why don't you stop this foolin' around You know your love has gotten me down 'Cause with out you I know I keep singin' these same old blues
