[00:16]I'm just a woman, a lonely woman
[00:19]Waiting on a weary shore
[00:23]I'm just a woman that's only human
[00:27]One you should be sorry for
[00:31]Got up this morning, along about dawn
[00:34]Without a warning, I found he was gone
[00:38]Why should he do it, how could he do it
[00:42]He never done it before
[00:44]Am I blue, am I blue
[00:52]Aint these tears in these eyes telling you
[00:59]Am I blue, you'd be too
[01:07]If each plan with your man
[01:11]Done fell through
[01:15]Was a time
[01:18]I was his only one
[01:22]But now I'm the sad and lonely one...lordy
[01:30]Was I gay, 'til today
[01:38]Now he's gone, and we're through
[01:42]Am I blue
[01:47]He's in Chicago, he's in Chicago.
[01:50]Now I'm down here in Birmingham.
[01:54]Trying to get the money, to get to see my honey.
[01:58]I am. Indeed, I am.
[02:01]With the blues in my heart,
[02:04]how my shoes want to start,
[02:05]but I'm in a jam.
[02:10]As blue as the sky blue.
[02:14]All wondering why too, do these tears in these eyes telling you.
[02:25]No one feels like I do.
[02:29]Boo hoo, boo-hoo, boo-hoo
[02:32]If each plan with your man
[02:36]Done fell through
[02:39]Was a time, I was his only, only, only one. But now I'm the sad and lonely one.
[02:54]Lordy, was I gay. Oh Lord, was I gay--every day.
[03:01]That man went away.
[03:03]Now he's gone, and we're through. Am I blue.
[03:10]That's all.
