Lyrics

(Words & music by mark james - elvis presley)
Well, it's hard to be a gambler
Bettin' on the number
That changes ev'ry time
Well, you think you're gonna win
Think she's givin' in
A stranger's all you find
Yeah, it's hard to figure out
What she's all about
That she's a woman through and through
She's a complicated lady, so color my baby moody blue

Oh, moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on
Try to learn the song
But I never do
Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you

Well, when monday comes she's tuesday
When tuesday comes she's wednesday
Through another day again
Her personality unwinds
Just like a ball of twine
On a spool that never ends
Just when I think I know her well
Her emotions reveal
She's not the person that
I though I knew
She's a complicated lady, so color my baby moody blue

Oh, moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on
Try to learn the song
But I never do
Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you

Oh, moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day
And it's hard to say
Which one is you
Oh, moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on
Try to learn the song
But I never do
