Have You Ever Felt That Way 1929

Have you ever had a feelin'
The world's about to end?
Have your brains just kept on reelin'
You seemed without a friend?
Have you had those mean old blues, too
But didn't understand?
Everyone around refused to
Lend you a helpin' hand

You're lookin' around
with no one in sight
Wondrin' where your baby is tonight
Have you ever felt that way?
You're feelin' forlorn,
you've got the BooHoos
Night and day you sing
the weary blues
Have you ever felt that way?
You are so downhearted
you don't know what to do
You ain't got nobody
to tell your troubles to
Just walkin' for miles with no place to go
Talkin' to yourself but you don't know
Have you ever felt that way?

You're watchin' the clock
and pacin' the floor
Waitin' for the knock
at your front door
Have you ever felt that way?
You can't sleep a wink,
you can't eat a bite
Everything is wrong
and nothin's right
Have you ever felt that way?
Life is so displeasin'
you wish that you could die
You're so melancholy and
all day long you sigh
Just walkin' in rings
but gettin' no where
Lookin' like a beggar in dispair
Have you ever felt that way?
