Lyrics:

(Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman)


I just got your letter baby

Too bad you can't come home

I swear I'm goin' crazy

Sittin' here all alone

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues



I ain't slept a wink since Sunday

I can't eat a thing all day

Every day is just blue Monday

Since you've been away

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues



Whoops there goes a teardrop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you're in love

It sure ain't no disgrace



I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I'm gonna catch the next train goin'

And leave my blues behind

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues



Whoops there goes a teardrop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you're in love

It sure ain't no disgrace



I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I'm gonna catch the next train goin'

And leave my blues behind

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues



Since you're gone I got a mess of blues

Since you're gone I got a mess of blues
