Blue Boy (French: Jean le Bleu) is a 1932 novel by the French writer Jean Giono. It tells the story of a family in Provence, with an ironer mother and a shoemaker father. The book is largely autobiographical and based on Giono's childhood, although it has many fictional anecdotes. An English translation by Katherine A. Clarke was published in 1946.
The novel was the basis for Marcel Pagnol's 1938 film The Baker's Wife. The film stars Raimu, Ginette Leclerc and Charles Blavette. Pagnol's film was in turn adapted into the American musical The Baker's Wife, which premiered in 1976. It was also the basis for the 2010 television film La Femme du boulanger, directed by Dominique Thiel.
Blue Boy is the fifth studio album from Canadian singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith. It was recorded in Nashville, and was produced by Steve Earle and his partner Ray Kennedy as the "Twangtrust." It includes a cover of the Kyp Harness song "Thumbelina Farewell."
All songs by Ronald Eldon Sexsmith except where noted.

You always looked so down,
It's much harder than you thought finding love in this town,
So full of ambition,
but you struggle under the weight of your inhibitions.
You don't want sympathy,
It's not the way it's ment to be,
Leaving all those parties cold and alone,
No girl to call you on the telephone.
Oh blue boy, I was once like you.
And I sung
Blue, blue blue boy (blue blue blue blue boy)
Blue, blue blue boy (blue blue blue blue boy)
So many false starts,
So many broken hearts,
Blue boy stay strong your true love will come along,
Coz you deserve it,
And you know it will be worth it,
and you'll no longer be a
