I’ve got the worried blues, got no heart to cry
I’ve got the worried blues, got no heart to cry
If the blues don’t kill me, boys I’ll never die

Some people say the worried blues not bad
Some people say the worried blues not bad
They’re the worst old things a man ever had

They’ll make you b’lieve world is upside down
They’ll make you b’lieve world is upside down
I’ve traveled this world, boys it’s all around

When you got the blues, you can’t eat nor sleep
When you got the blues, you can’t eat nor sleep
[Spoken: What are you gonna do then?]
You walk around like a police on his beat
