Blue as the heaven, blue as the sky
I got the blues, here's the reason why
I done lost my baby, going where I belong
I done lost my baby and the whole world is going all wrong

I stood and gazed far away
Lookin' for my baby, didn't have a word to say
I done lost my baby, going where I belong
I done lost my baby and the whole world is going all wrong

(spoken:
Girls, I done lost my baby
Too bad!
Too bad!
Tell some sweet man I say come up and see me sometime!
I'm just a lonely girl!)

I stood and thinkin', didn't know what to do
You got my baby, I'm so lonesome and blue
I done lost my baby, going where I belong
I done lost my baby and the whole world is going all wrong

I love my baby, now I'm down and out
I ain't gone tell nobody what it's all about
I done lost my baby, going where I belong
I done lost my baby and the whole world is going all wrong

(spoken: Take it, boys, I'm goin' where I belong!)
