I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? Woke up this morning, found something wrong Looked over in the corner and a trunk was gone And I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? You went away, away last Fall You told me baby, you wouldn't be back at all And I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I went to the gypsy, hoodoo doctor, too All of them said it wasn't nothing they could do And I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? Some says you left on the Southern, some says the C&A Don't care what train it was, it took my baby away And I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me? I'm so blue, blue as I can be You don't come back, they'll have to bury me And I've been blue ever since you went away Baby, won't you please come back to me?
