When Baby Gets The Blues

For months she's a perfect wife and a mother

You'd never dream that things could go so wrong

But like a cloud across the skies

I see the sadness fill her eyes

Then one day I'll come in and she'll be gone

When baby gets the blues my world turns over

While she's out somewhere with her bright lights and her booze

Until the day she comes back home ashamed and sober

My world stops turning when baby gets the blues

As long as she has me I know I'll keep forgiving

Though I'm afraid of how much I'll someday lose

I just can't tell you what a happy world that I live in

In between the times that my baby gets them ol' blues

When baby gets the blues my world turns over

While she's out somewhere with her bright lights and her booze

Until the day she comes back home ashamed and sober

My world turns over when baby gets the blues

My world turns over when baby gets the blues
