Skeeter Davis Bobby Blows A Blue Note Lyrics

Once upon a time a girl loved a boy and a boy loved a
girl
But the boy loved something more
The blues in the night with the band and a mike
And the thrill of a loud encore
Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note
Bobby blows a blue note all night long.

--- Instrumental ---

Then the girl said Bobby you've got to chose between me
and the blues
Cause she wanted all or none
But to quite is to die and though Bobby tried You can guess what finally won
Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note
Bobby blows a blue note all night long.

--- Instrumental ---

Now it's sad to know that the girl is alone but the show
must go on
And his loneliness can't show
But when he plays the blues they're bluer than blue
For the girl he used to know
Bobby blows a blue note a blue note a blue note
Bobby blows a blue note all night long...
