Am i blue
Harry Akst – Grant Clarke
Lyrics
I’m just a woman, a lonely woman
Waitin’ on a weary shore
I’m just a woman that’s only human
One you should be sorry for
Got up this mornin’ along about dawn
Without a warnin’ I found he was gone
Why should he do it, how could he do it
He never done it before
Am I blue, am I blue
Aint these tears in these eyes tellin’ you
Am I blue, you’d be too
If each plan with your man done fell through
Was a time I was his only one
But now I’m the sad and lonely one, Lawdy
Was I gay, till today
Now he’s gone and we’re through, am I blue
He’s in Chicago, he’s in Chicago
And I’m down here in Birmingham
Tryin’ to get the money to get to see my honey
I am, indeed I am
With the blues in my heart
How my shoes want’a stop, but I’m in a jam
As blue as the sky of blue
All wonderin’ why, to these tears in these eyes tellin’ you
No one feels like I do, boo-hoo, boo-hoo-boo-hoo
Each plan with my man done fell through
Was a time I was his only, only, only one
But now I’m the sad and lonely one, Lawdy
Was I gay, oh Lord was I gay, till today, that man went away
Now he’s gone and we’re through, am I blue
That’s all!
Partition Am i blue
