(Columbia Version)
Without a word of warnin'
The blues walked in this mornin'
And circled 'round my lonely room
I didn't know why I had that sad
'n lonely feelin'
Until my baby called
and said we're through, hooo.
For yesterday this time
I sang a love song but today
... I'm singing the blues.
Hmmmm...
Strikes me kinda funny
How love can be this way
we were lovers last night honey, yeah.
But I'm alone again today
and it strikes me kinda funny
how fate can be unfair
I come out on the losin' end
in every, every love affair!
Yes it must be, it must be written for me
that I should be the one,
be the one to always lose, hooo.
For yesterday
yesterday this time
I sing a love song whoaoohhh!
But right now – I'm singin the blues
Who-o-oh ye-he-heah
Without a word of warnin'
The blues walked in this mornin'
And circled 'round my lonely room
I didn't know why I had that sad
'n lonely feelin'
Until my baby called
and said we're through, hooo.
For yesterday this time
I sang a love song but today
... I'm singing the blues.
Hmmmm...
Strikes me kinda funny
How love can be this way
we were lovers last night honey, yeah.
But I'm alone again today
and it strikes me kinda funny
how fate can be unfair
I come out on the losin' end
in every, every love affair!
Yes it must be, it must be written for me
that I should be the one,
be the one to always lose, hooo.
For yesterday
yesterday this time
I sing a love song whoaoohhh!
But right now – I'm singin the blues
Who-o-oh ye-he-heah
