Lyrics
I got a feeling they call the blues head first right down to my shoes.
And there ain't nothing that I can do to tell those blues bye-bye or shoo-shoo.
My friends have left me all on my own.
They never visit, nor do they phone.
And that is why I'd like to cry
But being a guy I'll just have a good mo
I guess it started a year ago
When I was already feeling quite low
A mate called Red laughed as he said
I've never seen you looking so dead
Sure I know it was only a tease
But I got mad and asked him to leave
And so we parted, my gal went too
And ever since I've been feeling so blue
If you were me, how would you feel?
Do you wonder that I'm down at heel?
Woke up this morning with a new idea Rarely has my mind been so clear
stead of grumping, lazing around, Why not smile be
outward bound On the street that morning I said G'day to everyone who came my way
I even walked my neighbour's dog, a big St. Bernard, name of Log.
Thought of my friends that whole night, 'bout who was wrong and who was right.
What did it matter anymore, except to try to heal and restore?
Went out to see them the following day Said I was sorry straight away Red was delighted
My gal just swooned And as you can guess I was over the moon
It feels so great that I could fly
Guess it must just be a natural high, natural high.
