I'm lonesome, I'm lonesome And I got the lonesome midnight blues I'm lonesome, lonesome I got the lonesome midnight blues And I'm blue to my heart My man, I hate to lose Blues and trouble Have overtaken me Blues and trouble Have overtaken me And I've got those midnight blues Blue as I can be Late last night When my clock was striking three I said late last night When my clock was striking three My daddy was leaving And the blues had me I feel so troubled And I'm downhearted too Whoa blues I can't hide I've got the worried kind Lonesome midnight blues
