I'm just a
woman, a lonely woman,
waiting on
the weary shore.
I'm just a
woman who's only human,
one you
should feel sorry for.
Well, I woke
up this morning a long about dawn.
Without a
warning I found that he was gone.
Why did he do
it? How could he do it?
He'd never
done it before.
Am I blue. Am
I blue.
Ain't these
tears in these eyes tellin' you?
Oh, am I
blue? Well, I bet you would be, too,
if each plan
with your man done fell through.
There was a
time I was his only one.
but now I'm
the sad and lonely one.
Was I gay
'til today?
But now that
man is gone,
he's gone and
we are through.
Am I blue.
There was a
time I was his only one.
But now, a,
now, now, now, I'm the sad and lonely one.
Oh god, I'm
lonely.
But I
remember, oh, I remember when I was gay.
That was up
until today,
'cause now
that man is gone, he's gone and we are through.
Am I, am I,
well, would you believe it if I told you I'm blue?
