Well, it's hard to be a gambler bettin' on the number
That changes ev'ry time
When you think you're gonna win, you think she's givin' in
A stranger's all you find

Yeah, that's hard to figure out, what she's all about
But 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
Trying 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, into 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 thought I knew
But she's a complicated lady
So color my baby moody blue

Oh, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on
Trying to learn the song but I never do

Hey, 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, my baby, my moody blue

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

Yeah, moody blue
Tell me, am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on
Trying to learn the song but I never do
Let me tell you about moody blue
