Grey skies have all gone 'way,
Banished by the golden light,
and ain't that right?
And I'm walking with my baby,
Strollin' with my honey hand in hand,
and ain't it grand?
The birds flit by,
The flowers smile now, and
Angels sing when I'm
Walkin' with my baby,
Strollin' with my honey gal.

Your Papa says "No" ("No! No!")
Your Papa says "No" ("No! No!")
Your Papa says "No" ("No! No!")
"That boy's no good he'll do you wrong"
But Darlin' my Darlin', won't you listen to me?
Oh Darlin' Darlin' can't you see
I'm the one for you?
Your Mama says "No" ("No! No!")
Your Mama says "No" ("No! No!")
Your Mama says "No" ("No! No!")
"That boy's no good he'll bring you down"
But Darlin' my Darlin', won't you listen to me?
Oh Darlin' Darlin' can't you see
I'm the one for you?

I get the blues when my sweetie smiles at me (I get those blues nearly ev'ry day)
I get the blues when the heavens start to shine (I get those blues even though you're mine)
Wherever I go, whichever I turn, those Everlastin' Blues have got a hold on me

Deep in the darkest part of town there lives a man alone
Dressed in rags with eyes of red, he drinks his days away
But in the evening he comes out, he comes out to play
So if you see this rogue about, that's the Royal Mook!
This devil man goes about from house to house all night
Scratching here and poking there just looking for a mark
And if he finds out where you live he'll be sure to call
So if you hear a knock at your door you best leave it be!

Since you've been gone I've never seen,
I've never seen so much of you, I close my
eyes and you're there in the chair across from me and in my
dreams when I sleep I see you everywhere I look.
Since you've been gone I've never seen so much of you
Since you've been gone you've never strayed very far
So even though that I know that you've gone from me for good
I will wish, I will hope, that I'll see you in my dreams again tonight
