"Bad Case of the Blues" is a song by American country music artist Linda Martell.

"Bad Case of the Blues" was recorded at the Singleton Sound Studio, located in Nashville, Tennessee.

Mark Deming commented in his 1970 album review of Color Me Country, that Martell's yodeling on the track was "credible.

"[1] Katie Moulton of Oxford American magazine reviewed the song in 2019 and called it "compelling" despite not appearing to be so.

"She infuses it with the dissonance of self-knowledge, even as she takes her problems home to Mama in the country and deprecatingly calls herself "Miss Smarty'," Moulton commented.
