I was hopin' you'd be gone tonight when I got home
What are you still waiting for?
You're probably thinking that she won't like it where's she's at
And she'll come knocking on my door
I used to believe that too, oh, but I don't anymore So go away, blues don't hang around
She's gone, let me love again somehow
I've tried but I could not make her stay
So be like her and go away Well, here we are again, my old foul-weather friend
Not much left to talk about
We've cried and shared some laughs, reminiscing this and that
But it all seems so tiresome now
You've been good company but you wore your welcome thin So go away, blues don't hang around
She's gone, let me love again somehow
I've tried but I could not make her stay
So be like her and go away Go away, blues don't hang around here
She's gone, let me love again somehow
I've tried but I could not make her stay
So be like her and go away
