The Big Question

I've got some questions to ask you
On the subject called the blues
I've got some questions to ask you
On the subject called the blues
And if you're acquainted with that subject
Well, your answer may mean good news.
Have you ever rose at midnight
And walked the floor 'til the break of day?
Have you ever rose at midnight
And walked the floor 'til the break of day?
And tried your best to figure why
Your baby went away?
Have you ever laid and wondered
And cried the whole night through?
Have you ever laid and wondered
And cried you whole night through?
Have you ever loved a woman
That turned her back on you?
Have you ever sat down to dinner
And had to eat alone
And think about your baby
And your appetite is gone?
Have you ever lost your loved one
Have you ever felt so sad?
Well, friends, it happened to me
That's why I've got the blues today.
