Awoke this morning Feeling blue

In this weary old bed today. I been lucky

But it’s so lonely

And my baby is so far away.

I keep smilin’

Full of joy

Everyone is happy to play. I love singing

Throughout the night

But my baby is so far away.

Tomorrow mornin’

Get up and drive

To another working day. Talk to the owner

Set the stage

Get ready to sing and play.

Still smilin’ Full of joy

Everyone is happy to play. I love singing

Throughout the night

But my baby is so far away.

Another party

A really good time

It gives me laughter and joy

I love the blues Everything about it

It’s how I feel each day.

But it’s been so long

In this empty bed

It drives me outta my mind. I been lucky

But it’s so lonely

And my baby is so far away, And my baby is so far away, And my baby is so far away.
