From the recording Certain Shade Of Blue

Lyrics

VERSE
I’ve been lots of places in this old world of ours
I’ve seen lots of snow; I’ve seen lots of flowers
But there’s one place I’ve been
Oh, there’s one place I’ve been; baby, never again
I don’t want to go back to that place, oh, they call the blues

PRE-CHORUS
We’ve been hooked up for a long, long time
But now you soundin’ like you thinkin ’bout commitin’ a crime

CHORUS
(Now) You gonna send me back to the blues
If you do all those things you talkin’ about
Oh, you gonna send me right on back to the blues
Now nobody gonna ’cuse you of bein’ no girl scout
Even so, you know you’re the one I can’t live without
So, Lord knows, baby, don’t send me back to the blues

VERSE
Don’t know what I did for you to say all these things
You got me wonderin’ hard what the future gonna bring
I thought I’d done my best; oh, I thought I’d done my best
But I guess I must’ve done you wrong
I love you, girl; I was nothin’ ’til you came along

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Now I’m straight-out beggin’ you, baby
Don’t send me back to the blues
