Blues in the Night

My mama done tol' me

When I was in knee pants

My mama done tol' me

Son a woman'll sweet talk

And give you the big eye

But when the sweet talkin's done

A woman's a two face

A worrisome thing

Who'll leave you singing the blues in the night

Now the rain's a fallin'

Hear the train's a callin Whooee

My mama done tol' me

Hear that lonesome whistle blowin'

Cross the trestle Whooee

My mama done tol' me

A whooee ah whooee ol'

Clickety clack's a echoin' back the blues in the night

The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin'

And the moon'll hide its light

When you get the blues in the night

Boy take my word

The mockingbird'll sing the saddest kind o' 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 been in some big towns an' heard some big talk

But there is one thing I know

A woman's a two face

A worrisome thing

Who'll leave you singing the blues in the night

From Natchez to Mobile

From Memphis to St Joe

Wherever the four winds blow

I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk

But there is one thing I know

A woman's a two face

A worrisome thing

Who'll leave you singing the blues in the night

My mama talk you

A woman's a two face

A worrisome thing

Who'll leave you singing the blues in the night

Every night all the night

I got her in the night
