I wonder why, why do everything have to happen to me
I wonder why, why do everything have to happen to me
Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome, my heart is filled with misery

Oh, so many strange things, they happen to me all day long
Oh, so many strange things, they happen to me all day long
yes, it seems like everything I do, everything I do is wrong

I had a good reputation, the greatest man in town
But I'm having so much troubles, till they 'bout to drag me down

I wonder why, why do everything have to happen to me
I wonder why, why do everything have to happen to me
Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome, my heart is filled with misery

I got up on my feet, I had lots of friends
But bad luck had hit me, now I'm down again
