I'd rather be blue, thinking of you   I'd rather be blue over you   Than be happy with somebody else      I'm crazy about ya, without ya   For you, I'm strong   I can't do without ya   Oucha-ma-goucha, don't stay too long      I need a little ah, little ooh, little oh   And I'm knocking on wood   Honey, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up   It's so hard to be good      I'd rather be blue, thinking of you   I'd rather be blue over you   Than be happy with somebody else      Will I be good? Will I be bad?   Don't be a fool, you fool   My little flat, I'm turning that   Into a Sunday school      While you're away, I'm here to say   There'll be no ice man there   Singing the blues I'm gonna use   Nothing but Frigidaire      I'd rather be blue, thinking of you   I'd rather be blue over you   Than be happy with somebody else      Blue over you   I'd rather be blue over you   Than be Hap-hap-hap-happy   With somebody else
