Lyrics:
Once I was happy as I could beBut I let a gal make a fool of meAnd ever since she let me downThe blues come around when the sun goes downOh, the blues come aroundOh the blues come aroundLawd, the blues come aroundEv'ry evenin' when the sun goes downAs long as the sun is in the skyThese doggone blues never make me cryBut ever since she left this townThe blues come around when the sun goes downOh, the blues come aroundOh the blues come aroundLawd, the blues come aroundEv'ry evenin' when the sun goes downI built my castles very highAnd then she went and said goodbyeAnd ever since she tore 'em downThe blues come around when the sun goes downOh, the blues come aroundOh the blues come aroundLawd, the blues come aroundEv'ry evenin' when the sun goes downOnce she called me all her ownBut now she's gone and I'm aloneAnd ever evenin' I'm sorrow bound'Cause the blues come around when the sun goes downOh, the blues come aroundOh the blues come aroundLawd, the blues come aroundEv'ry evenin' when the sun goes down
