MESSIN' WITH THE BLUES

You can't play the blues
If you ain't really blue
No, you can't play the blues
If you ain't really blue.

I was blue, so blue
Until the day I met you.

You just kept on smilin'
Smilin' in the rain
You just keep on smilin'
Smilin' in spite of the pain.

CHORUS
You're messin' with the Blues, baby
Can't you see what you done
You're messin' with the Blues, baby
You're just havin' too much fun.

I was so sad, so low, so down
I thought I'd lose my mind
I was so sad, so low, so down
I sang the Blues just fine.

Then you came along, baby
And shined my favorite shoes
Yes, you came along, baby
And took away the Blues.

You're messin' with the Blues, baby
You're really out of touch
You're messin' with the Blues, baby
You're smilin' too damn much.

CHORUS
You're messin' with the Blues, baby
Can't you see what you've done
You're messin' with the Blues, baby
You're just too damn much fun!
