The Meaning Of The Blues

Do you know what it means to walk alone?

And what it means to be, be by yourself?

Do you know what it means when there's

No one to bring you good news?

Then you know, you know the meaning of the blues

Do you know what it means to cry alone?

And what it means to cry by yourself?

Do you know what it means

To love a woman you can't own?

If you do, you know the meaning of the blues

I've been weepin' and weepin', moanin' and moanin'

Cryin' and sighin' all the day

I've been hidin' my tears, feel like dyin'

Wishin' love would come to stay

And do you know what it means when the Lord is taken away?

I cry, oh, I cry, oh, I cry everyday

Yes, I know what it means to walk alone

And how it feels to walk by myself

Yes, I know what it means to

Love a woman you can't own

Yes, I do, I know the meaning of the blues

Yes, I know the meaning of the blues
