Lyric Mood Indigo

(1930) Barney Bigard, Duke Ellington, Irving Mills

You ain t never been blue, no, no, no
You ain t never been blue
Till you ve had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh
Go along blues

I always get that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
And in the evening when the lights are low
I m so lonely I could cry
For there s nobody who cares about me
I m just a poor fool that s bluer than blue can be
When I get that mood indigo
I could lay me down and die

You ain t never been blue, no, no, no
You ain t never been blue
Till you ve had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh
Go along blues
