By Reverend Keith A. Gordon, About.com

Are things getting stressful? Having no fun whatsoever? Ever wonder if you have the Blues? By using the following list, you will be able to determine if you truly have the Blues.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: 10 minutes

Here's How:

  1. You've been down so long, the bottom looks like up.
  2. If it wasn't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all.
  3. Nobody loves you except your mother, and she could be jivin' too.
  4. You gave somebody seven children, and now they want to return them.
  5. You're all dressed up and have got no place to go.
  6. Tears are flowing down like raindrops.
  7. You have a Hell Hound on your trail.
  8. You go to brush something off your shoulder, and it's the floor.
  9. You are warned not to boogie with your black drawers on.

Tips:

  1. Take your clothes off, close the blinds.
  2. Place your favorite Blues artist on the stereo.
  3. Pitch a Wang Dang Doodle all night long.
