Lyrics for Song: Blues Is Only A Ghost (1931)
Lyrics for Album: Complete Recorded Works 1925-32, Vol. 6-(1930-31) [1991]
Blues leave my room, and please don't come here no more.
Blues leave my room, and please don't come here no more.
'Cause you been nothin' but trouble, every since you darkened my door.
Blues, please leave my room, I'm beggin' you on my bended knees.
Blues, leave my room, I'm beggin' you on my bended knees.
'Cause ever since you crossed my doorsill, you been nothin' but a pain in the neck to me.
Blues and trouble, please find some other place to go.
Blues and trouble, please find some other place to go.
'Cause I in my heart I got no scattle, my heart is white as snow.
I used to live so happy, before you started hangin' 'round my home.
I used to live so happy, before you started hangin' 'round my home.
And since you crossed my doorsill, it's been always something goin' on wrong.
Blues, you only a ghost, you sleeps all day and worry me all night long.
Blues, you only a ghost, you sleeps all day and worry me all night long.
And then I'm left to suffer, in my young life that's comin' on.
Blues, please, let me alone.
Blues, blues, please, let me 'lone.
'Cause you got me so worried, at night I can't sleep at home.
