BLUE OVER YOU
(Tommy Dover)


Tommy Dover & His Texas Rhythm Boys - 1949





When I met you, baby, I thought for sure
I've stopped runnin' around
But that's just where I got my start
And now I'm seein' the town

'Cause you broke my heart
And I'm drinkin' again
I'm a-livin' a life of sin
'Cause I'm blue, I'm blue over you

(Instrumental Break)

I'm a-honky-tonkin' ev'ry night
All because of you
Your kind o' lovin' didn't make things right
It only made me blue

'Cause you broke my heart
And I'm drinkin' again
I'm a-livin' a life of sin
'Cause I'm blue, I'm blue over you

(Instrumental Break)

I'm a-walkin' off with a brand new start
I'm a-lookin' over this town
I'll find me a gal with a kinder heart
And she won't turn me down

'Cause you broke my heart
And I'm drinkin' again
I'm a-livin' a life of sin
'Cause I'm blue, I'm blue over you
