When the town is fast asleep, Mister Blues begins his round.
When the town is fast asleep, Mister Blues begins his round.
Every time he knocks on somebody’s door, he leaves them with a mournful sound.

Poor woman screams out, “My man is gone. Lord, what am I gonna do?”
Screams out, “My man is gone. Lord, what am I gonna do?
“I never knew how much I loved him, until he said we were through.”

Then he stroll on down, stop at the house next door.
Yes, then he strolls on down, stops at the house next door.
Ol’ man run out screamin’, “My baby ‘s gone, and she won’t be back anymore.”

I lost the only one who loved me, I listened to what my friends had to say.
Yes, I lost the woman who loved me, I listened to what my friends had to say.
Ever since my baby walked out that door, I been dyin’ slowly day-by-day.
