A Mess Of Blues - Delbert McClinton

I just got your letter, baby

Sayin' that you, you can’t come home

I think I’m goin' crazy

Sittin' here all alone

Since you gone away, I got a mess of blues

I been drinkin' since last Sunday

I ain’t ate a thing all day

Every day is Blue Monday

Since you’ve been gone away

Since you gone away, I got a mess of blues

Whoops, there goes a tear drop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you’re in love

Sure ain’t no disgrace

I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I’m gonna catch the next thing going

I’m gonna leave my blues behind

Since you gone away, I got a mess of blues

Whoops, there goes a tear drop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you’re in love

Sure ain’t no disgrace

I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I’m gonna catch the next thing going

I’m gonna leave my blues behind

Since you gone away, I got a mess of blues

Since you gone away, I got a mess of blues
