lyrics

King of the Blues
H. Newman

1st verse: King of the Blues, oh baby
That's what you made me
Yes, I cry at night and even call your name.
Sometimes for days I go through
Sorrow and pain all for you that's why I'm the king,
King of the Blues.

Chorus: My kingdom is callin'
So I'd better get crawlin'
Back to the shadows
Where no one knows but me.
And I can't forget it
It's my latest news
You crowned me the King of the Blues.

2nd verse: King of the Blues, I wonder
What kind of spell you put me under
I'm so wrapped-up in where we began and ended.
And I did you wrong, now honey,
I wish I could tell you the truth, I'm so lost
I'm the King of the Blues.

C.&P. 1987, Windy Holler Music, ASCAP
