When he was 'round
Thangs weren't so blue
Thangs weren't as low
Thangs still felt new
But he ain't 'round
I've got them dreary blue blues
We was good friends
If that's what you'd say
We'd hang late
We'd play straight
Yes, we was good friends
As they would say
But he ain't 'round
I've got the dreary blue blues
We'd smoke 'n drank
We'd laugh us some
We'd feel angry
And then some
Thangs are so dreary
Now he ain't 'round
I wish he'd come 'round
Cause I've got them dreary blue blues
Friends we is
And friends we were
Thangs so dreary
Makes me want to quit
Thangs so dreary now that
He ain't 'round
I've got them dreary blue blues
Thangs weren't as low
Thangs still felt new
But he ain't 'round
I've got them dreary blue Blues
Maybe I can start new
He killed that gal
She can't start new
White folks killed him too
He ain't round no mo'
I've got them dreary blue blues
Maybe I can start new
Do somethang
Anythang
To cure these dreary blue blues
