Skeeter Davis - Bobby Blows a Blue Note lyrics

rate me

(Ronny Light)

Once upon a time a girl loved a boy and a boy loved a girl

But the boy loved something more

The blues in the night with the band and a mike

And the thrill of a loud encore

Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note

Bobby blows a blue note all night long.

--- Instrumental ---

Then the girl said Bobby you've got to chose between me and the blues

Cause she wanted all or none

But to quite is to die and though Bobby tried

You can guess what finally won

Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note

Bobby blows a blue note all night long.

--- Instrumental ---

Now it's sad to know that the girl is alone but the show must go on

And his loneliness can't show

But when he plays the blues they're bluer than blue

For the girl he used to know

Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note

Bobby blows a blue note all night long...
