Have you ever had the blues in the morning
When you’ve waken with that dawn's early  light
Have you ever had the blues in the evening
When the sun is going to bed for the night

Now if the [bad word] round to your door step
I guess all they want to stay
Just grab an old guitar and sit down by the fire
And yodel your blues away

Have you ever had an ache in your heartstrings
Have you ever had the blues in your mind
Have you ever had a gal who was faithless
Who turned you down for one of her own kind

Now if you have these troubles I’ll tell you
Things that you oughta do right away
Just grab an old guitar and sit down by the fire
And yodel your blues away
