Thread Name: Lyr Req: Fifty Fifty Blues (from Louis Armstrong)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Fifty Fifty Blues (from Louis Armstrong)
I heard in on a old vinyl that a friend of mine had years ago. Here the the words I remember:

Well, I woke up this morning, feeling lonely and blue.
I woke up this afternoon and I felt the same way, too.
That makes us partners in sorrow; got blues enough for two.

Got blues to share; got blues to spare
Got the blues in my heart; I got the blues in my hair.

Why don't we move these blues; this mood is hard to lose.
Well I'm beginning to see the light.

We'll get these blues off our chest; that way is always the best.
We'll lose the fifty fifty blues tonight.
