I wonder why   Why do everything have to happen to me   I wonder why   Why do everything have to happen to me   Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome    My heart is filled with misery      Oh, so many strange things   They happen to me all day long   Oh, so many strange things   They happen to me all day long   yes, it seems like everything I do   Everything I do is wrong      I had a good reputation   The greatest man in town   But I'm having so much troubles   Till they 'bout to drag me down   I wonder why   Why do everything have to happen to me   Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome    My heart is filled with misery      I got up on my feet   I had lots of friends   But bad luck had hit me   Now I'm down again   I wonder why   Why do everything have to happen to me   Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome    My heart is filled with misery
