 Underlying depression,  have to crawl  into  my room
 Underlying depression,  don't want to know  about the moon  in June
 Outside there's a  cavalcade of clowns,  but they're just  bringing me down
 With underlying depression
 Underlying depression  and it's starting  in my backyard
 Underlying depression,  and these times  ain't even  so hard
 Lord I was born  with the  blues and my blue  suede shoes
 And underlying depression
 Underlying depression  and there's  just nowhere to  turn
 Underlying depression  and things just seem  to turn in on one
 Sometimes I'm stuck  here in the corner,  just like Little  Jack Horner
 With underlying depression
 Underlying depression  and I just  can't get  it right
 Underlying depression  I've got to  fight it with  all of  my  might
 Right now I don't  want to be alone,  get my  baby on the telephone
 Underlying depression
 Have to make some concessions  when everything is working  right
 Have to count my blessings,  helps me make  it through  the night
 I've got  love in my life,  as well  as trouble and  strife, yeah
 And underlying depression
 (  w/ -  to end)
 Underlying depression, underlying depression, underlying depression
 Ain't nothing but the blues
 Underlying depression ain't nothing but the blues
 Underlying depression, ain't nothing but the blues
 Underlying depression
