Knee Deep in the Blues Lyrics

Peaked at # 16 in 1957 as a sort-of sequel to his "Singin' the Blues"(was written by the same man.)--Melvin Endsley

Well, I've just been thinkin' things over
How I have loved you for years

My life just don't seem worth livin'

Since you have left me in tears

CHORUS

My skies have all turned to gray now

And I just walk the soles offa my shoes
Since you've been gone my heart's broken

And I'm just knee-deep in the blues

<instrumental CHORUS break with whistling>

Well, I've just been thinkin' things over

How I have loved you for years

My life just don't seem worth livin'
Since you have left me in tears

SECOND CHORUS:

You ask me why I've been cryin'

It's 'cause I've lost 'bout all I can lose

Since you've been gone I've quit tryin'

And I'm just knee-deep in the blues
