Lyrics

You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,

You have never experienced sadness or melancholy.

You ain't never been blue,

Reiteration of the absence of feeling blue.

Till you've had that mood indigo.

True blue feelings only emerge when one has experienced mood indigo.

That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes

The indigo mood sensation extends down to the speaker's shoes, indicating a pervasive and deep emotional state.

While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

The speaker passively laments while the blues take hold, expressing a sense of resignation.


I always get that mood indigo,

The speaker consistently experiences mood indigo, particularly after a romantic separation.

Since my baby said goodbye.

The persistent mood indigo follows the departure of the speaker's significant other.

And in the evenin' when the lights are low,

In the evening, when the environment is subdued, the speaker feels intensely lonely.

I'm so lonely I could cry.

The loneliness is so profound that the speaker could cry.

'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,

Expressing a lack of support or concern from others.

I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be.

The speaker describes themselves as a profoundly sad and unfortunate person.

When I get that mood indigo,

Reiteration of experiencing mood indigo, highlighting its overwhelming nature.

I could lay me down and die.

The intensity of mood indigo becomes so unbearable that the speaker contemplates death.


You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,

Repeat of the idea that the listener has not experienced true sadness.

You ain't never been blue,

Reiteration of the absence of feeling blue.

Till you've had that mood indigo.

True blue feelings only emerge when one has experienced mood indigo.

That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes

The indigo mood sensation extends down to the speaker's shoes, indicating a pervasive and deep emotional state.

While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

The speaker passively laments while the blues take hold, expressing a sense of resignation.
