Bobby Blows A Blue Note

by Four Jacks and a Jill

on Master Jack (1968)

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 plays a blue note, a blue note, a blue note
Bobby plays a blue note all night long

Now the girl said Bobby you've got to chose between me and the blues for she wanted all or none
But to quit is to die
And though Bobby tried, you can guess what finally won

Bobby plays a blue note, a blue note, a blue note
Bobby plays a blue note all night long

Now I'm sad to say that I'm all alone, but the show must go on for his loneliness can't show
And when he plays the blues
They're bluer than blue for a girl he used to know

Now I'm sad to say that I'm all alone, but the show must go on for his loneliness can't show
And when he plays the blues
They're bluer than blue for a girl he used to know

Bobby plays a blue note, a blue note, a blue note
Bobby plays a blue note all night long

And Bobby plays a blue note, a blue note, a blue note
Bobby plays a blue note all night long
