Blues in the Night

Blues in the Night - Julie London (朱莉.倫敦、Gayle Peck)

My mama done told me when I was in knee-pants

My mama done told me

A man's gonna sweet-talk and give you the big eyes

But when the sweet-talking's done

A man is a two-face a worrisome thing

Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night"

Now the rain's a fallin'

Hear the train a callin' whoo ee

Hear the lonesome whistle blowin'

Cross the trestle whoo ee

Whoo ee a whoo ee ol' clickety-clack

I'm back on the track of blues in the night

The evening breeze will start the trees to cryin'

And the moonlight'll hide its light

When you get the blues in the night

Take my word the mockingbird

Will sing the saddest kind of song

He knows things are wrong and he's right

From Natchez to Mobile from Memphis to St Joe

Wherever the four winds blow

I've been in some big towns

And I've heard me some big talk

But there is one thing I know

A man's a two-face a worrisome thing

Who'll leave you to sing the blues in the night

Oh

My mama was right

My mama was right

The blues in the night
