Cap't Bob Lyr Req: Fifty Fifty Blues (from Louis Armstrong) (10) Lyr Add: FIFTY FIFTY BLUES (from Louis Armstrong) 16 Oct 10


I found a stack of old 78 in the attic of the garage. Amazed to find the 78 that I though was long gone. A friend had a 78 player and copyed it for me. AT LONG LAST:::::

FIFTY FIFTY BLUES      

I woke up this morning feeling weary and blue.
Oh, I woke up this afternoon, but I felt the same way, too.
That makes us partners in sorrow. We've got blues enough for two.

I've got blues to spare, blues to share.
I've got blues in my heart, and blues in my hair.
The mood is hard to lose. Why don't we pool these blues until we start to feel all right?

OK, we partners in sorrow, with the fifty-fifty blues tonight.

We had blues to spare, blues to share
Blues in our hearts and blues in our hair
That mood was all too loose, that's why we pooled our blues
But now we can see the light
We got the blues off our chests, that way is always the best
We lost the fifty-fifty blues tonight.

Appears to be the only copy in existance...
