It seems the blues
Will never, never, never leave me
It seems the blues
Will never, never go away
(And that's what thanks)
I've been so downhearted
Since my love and I have parted
But the blues keep coming back

I caught the blues
When my baby left me
Yes, I'm so blue
All alone and accused
All along I detected
That I was infected
With a virus called the blues

I went to my doctor
To get a little relief
I told him all about you baby
Max, I walked the floor
My heart was in grief
I told him what you mean to me
Ohhh

He said go home
Go home, Charles
There's nothing I can do for you
Go home, go home
I have no good news
You don't need no narcotics
No antibiotics
You got a virus called the blues

I went to my doctor
To get some relief
I told him all about you, my baby
I walked the floor
My heart was in grief
I told him what you mean to me
Ohhh

He said go home
Go home, Charles
There's nothing I can do for you
Go home
I have no good news
You don't need no narcotics
No antibiotics
You got a virus called the blues

I got a virus called the blues
Max, I got a virus called the blues
Charles Brown, you know I got a virus called the blues
Yes, I got a virus, virus called the blues
I got a cronic virus called the blues
It happened to me, Max, I got a virus called the blues
Yes, Charles, I have a virus (yeah) called the blues
Sho' nuff', got a virus, called the blues
