Lyrics:

(Don Gibson)

It's been a blue, blue day, I feel like running away
I feel like running away from it all
My love has been untrue, she's found somebody new
It's been a blue, blue day for me.

I feel like crying, dying, what can I do
I feel like praying, saying I'm glad we're through
It's been a blue, blue day, I feel like running away
I feel like running away from the blues.

--- Instrumental ---

How can I make believe that I don't sit and grieve
It's been a blue, blue day for me
I can't pretend and say that I don't love her anyway
It's been a blue, blue day for me.

I feel like crying, dying, what can I do
I feel like praying, saying I'm glad we're through
It's been a blue, blue day, I feel like running away
I feel like running away from the blues.

I feel like running away from the blues...
