It's eight-thirty now, I'm still waiting for you
I wonder where you can be
You promised to come home but now I'm all alone
And I've got those eight thirty blues
You better stop your rambling and your rowdy ways
Or else I won't be waiting for you
But if you won't listen, just do as you please
I won't have those eight thirty blues
It's eight thirty now but you don't seem to care
How long I've waited for you
Sweetheart when you get home you'll find you're all alone
Then you'll have those eight thirty blues
