Mess Of Blues

Tom Jones · Other Songs - Tom Jones

I just got your letter, baby

Too bad you can't come home

I swear, I'm goin' crazy

Sittin' here all alone

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues

I ain't slept a week since Sunday

I can't eat a thing all day

And every day is just blue Monday

Since [Incomprehensible] away

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues

Whoops, there goes a teardrop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you're in love

Sure ain't no disgrace

I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I gotta catch the next train goin'

And leave these blues behind

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues

Well, whoops, there goes a teardrop

Rollin' down my face

If you cry when you're in love

It sure ain't no disgrace

I gotta get myself together

Before I lose my mind

I gotta catch the next train goin'

And leave these blues behind

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues

Since you're gone

I got a mess of blues
