Lyrics:
First verse
Ta de da da de dum, Ta de da da de dum, There's a funny strain a stealing, Thru mah brain it drives me ‘most insane it seems, Ta de da da de dum, Ta de da da de dum, If you'll listen now I'll tell you what this Ta da da de dum-me means.
Chorus
Oh! I got them dangerous blues, Naughty dog gone dangerous blues, Can’t you hear the music playing soft and sweet, It’s the kind that makes you want to shake your feet, I think I’m slippin, I know I’m slippin, Ta de da de, Da de da de, Da de da de dum, Weary Dreary, Dangerous Blues. They’re the kind you hate to lose. I can’t even think, So lay me out in pink, Ev’ry time that Saxophone it moans I want to sink, ‘Cause I got them dog gone Dangerous blues. Oh! I got them dangerous blues, Naughty dog gone dangerous blues, Can’t you hear the music playing soft and sweet, It’s the kind that makes you want to shake your feet, I think I’m slippin, I know I’m slippin, Ta de da de, Da de da de, Da de da de dum, Weary Dreary, Dangerous Blues. They’re the kind you hate to lose. I can’t even think, Can’t even sleep a wink, Ev’ry time I hear those mournful blues I want to sink, ‘Cause I got them dog gone Dangerous Blues.
