Blues in the mornin'
Mis'ry in the evenin'
I'm the saddest man you ever knew.
Got my share of sorrow
Same ol' thing tomorrow
Since you're gone the dawn is always overdue.

Blues in the mornin'
Mis'ry in the evenin'
Keep me wonderin' what I oughta do.
Almost out of money
Yes, you think that's funny
Even when you know that I'm still in love with you.

Ba-by, when you told me goodbye,
With a smile in your eye.
Oh ba-by I had to laugh
So that I wouldn't cry.

Now there's nothin' but blues in the mornin'
Misr'y in the evenin'
Wake up sobbin' like a child of doom.
Wish I'd never met you, let the devil get you
Then you'll know the heartache of a fool -
Full of mis'ry and the blues.
