Am I blue? Am I blue? 
Ain't these tears In my eyes Tellin' you
 Am I blue? You'd be too
 If each plan With your man
 Done fell through Was a time I was his only one
 But now I'm The sad and lonely one, Lawdy Was I gay 'Til today
 Now he's gone And we're through
 Am I blue?

(bridge)

Was I gay 'Til today 
Now he's gone And we're trough
 Am I blue? Oh he's gone He left me
 Am I blue?
