Blues in the Night

Blues in the Night - Lloyd Price

My mama done tol' me when I was in knee-pants

My mama done tol' me son a woman'll sweet talk

And give ya the big eye but when the sweet talkin's done

A woman's 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's a-callin'

Whooee

My mama done tol' me

Hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle whooee

My mama done tol' me

A-whooee-ah-whooee ol' clickety-clack's a-echoin' back th' blues in the night

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

The moon'll hide its light when you get 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 ya to sing the blues in the night
