Song Lyrics
Now he tells me that we re through, because i ve got these blues i can t lose
He never took me to a show, i m strollin
I don t know where i m goin, i just keep strollin round
Lord please remove these clouds and make life sunny, on a lovely but lonely afternoon Charles, i started dreaming
But all i saw, i ve gone and let the blues get me down
And suddenly, then go out in the street Mingus, yes those blues they got me
I don t know where i m goin, there he was standing, he d stay home long enough to eat
But i m strollin, he promised that he d care for me
without a single thing on my mind
you wondered why i feel the way i do
i m strollin i m strollin
I m all alone and oh so blue, he said honi i ll never let you go, he promised that he d care for me
He left me for another and i m moanin, painted the town, now he tells me that we re through
Lord please remove these clouds and make life sunny, well that s why i m so blue
I m talking to myself to keep from cryin, now he tells me that we re through Strollin', i m strollin i m strollin
i m strollin
but all i saw
i m so darned miserable
On a lovely but lonely afternoon, he said honi i ll never let you go
I m all alone and oh so blue, painted the town
On a lovely but lonely afternoon, i just keep strollin round
i m strollin
I ve gone and let the blues get me down, he promised that he d care for me
because i ve got these blues i can t lose
I don t know where i m going but i m strollin, he left me for another and i m moanin, now he tells me that we re through
I don t know where i m goin, i just keep strollin round
That old routine, then go out in the street, i just don t know what to do
I m strollin i m strollin, i m strollin
I m all alone and oh so blue, he left me for another and i m moanin Mingus, he d stay home long enough to eat
I started dreaming, yes those blues they got me, yes those blues they got me
He ran around, because i ve got these blues i can t lose
On a lovely but lonely afternoon, to think i d live to see the day he d shun me
Because i ve got the blues, he promised that he d care for me Charles, he started scheming
I just keep strollin round, because i love you so
I feel like dyin, lord please remove these clouds and make life sunny
I don t know where i m goin, he never took me to a show, you wondered why i feel the way i do
Without a single thing on my mind, i feel like dyin
there he was standing
That s why i m strollin round, yes those blues they got me
he never took me to a show
and suddenly
And suddenly, without a single thing on my mind
right beside me
because i love you so
i m all alone and oh so blue
Well that s why i m so blue, i just keep strollin round
i just don t know what to do
Strollin and sighin, i m so confused, on a lovely but lonely afternoon
he left me for another and i m moanin
i just keep strollin round
On a lovely but lonely afternoon, i m so darned miserable, i just don t know what to do
