SINGING THE BLUES
(Words and Music by Melvin Endsley)

Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues
'Cause I never thought that I'd ever lose
Your love dear, why'd you do me this way?
Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night
'Cause everythin's wrong, and nothin' ain't right
(1) Without you, you got me singin' the blues.
(2) Without you, you got me singin' the blues; Oh-

The moon and stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothin' left for me to do
But cry-y-y-y over you (cry over you)
Well, I never felt more like runnin' away
But why should I go 'cause I couldn't stay
Without you, you got me singin' the blues.

Thanks to an anonymous friend who e-mailed the lyrics. I double-checked them in a Warner Brothers fakebook, so I'm pretty sure they're accurate. Not much different from what Cranky Yankee impressively posted from memory.
